thanks i still have floating concerns i forsee attaching glass to the bottom of the structures again. even when its all said and done the true effect will be when the live rock is placed andi t all turns purpley grey. i will have a time period of hateing it untill that happens. i too cant wait for it to be salty its driving my batfish crazy

You can put plastic laminate on anything you want. I build all my stands out of plywood and 2x4 and then wrap them with the plastic laminate(same as used on most kitchen counter tops) Its basically bullet proof
