Well long over due been away in Florida trying to soak up the sun , But that didn't happen. Oh Well back home to work on the stand and tank.

received my second order of ECO REEFER ROCK. WOW.

finally got around to using some Tie straps to make some cool stuff I guess tell me what you think. And after looking at it I see a dragon or a SEA Monster in the left side so cool.


Still need to work on this one I may make a tower ,but I may not any idea's

Ok I have to ask.......... your overflow is sooooooo small and I need to know why and how well do you think it will work. I am not bashing the design as everyone has different ideas.

Well an update of the stand went to home depot to get a price on the cabinets and OMFG. $7600 for the cabinets around the tank. looks like that i'm going another route for the cabinets tank on hold til i can figure this one out . sorry folks. I have them looking for a less price in the 15-2000 range..

That is insane - was that for just the doors or cabinets too? Have you tried some of other builders merchants in town? Most of them do kitchen stuff too, and I've never seen a house we built get a kitchen, or pretty much anything else for that matter, from home depot. Maybe their consumer friendliness comes at a price?

There has to be a way of doing it cheaper if that fails. You/we could make doors cheaper if we went for something like a plywood door with a wood trim around the edge (and you could have your custom sizes that way too).. Would be more of the Ikea type look, but you could make it 'pop' a bit with a different colour of wood for the trim; something like that computer table I have if you remember it. Bubinga (expensive) or Mahogany (less so) would stand out nicely if you're going for a light wood for the main part - and you can stand the pink dust when you sand it...

A suggested already, Ikea itself may also be a viable option even if you have to go and get it - I don't remember their stuff being that expensive and I have a soft spot for Ikea. Would be well worth a look at their website. It's also worth noting that the American Ikea seems from the websites to have a better range of stuff than the Canadian one. Don't know where the nearest American store is though. I think the nearest Canadian one is Calgary until they build that one in Winnipeg...

Finally, there's a Hutterite colony somewhere that does kitchen cabinets, I'll see if I can do some finding out...
