Figured I'd better put my new end-table to good use!

I started with a pico tank but had a few leaks on account of it having no end pane and nothing but tape holding it together:



I then picked up a new tank and Concept Aquatics Aquariums was kind enough to void all warranties by drilling a few holes in the back. I glued my failed pico in place:



Cured overnight and voila my end-table has been transformed =)

It's 20 feet from my office right where I left it. My buddy is still getting his basement ready to receive the glass (which still needs to be cut apart).

Like I tell my wife it *could* be hookers and blow... so stand back and let me do this LOL.

The tank is a stock Marineland 93. Those clowns advertise the footprint as 30x30 but that is trim to trim. The tank itself measures 29x29x24 I think.

The stand is another quick lastlight special. I have Rona make all the cuts to the plywood then slap it together in the kitchen and add my trim.

I once told the wife the same and she asked me what was cheaper


Good luck with it and don't forget to croos out the 28 at the bottom unless your keeping it

Nice job on the stand
Looking forward to the rest

We all knew you couldn't stick with a tank you could lift when full by yourself
