lol. Let's see if it holds the weight of the full tank Seriously tho, it is a strong stand, and overall a successful project, but a couple of things had to undergo design changes to cover mistakes. I have to fit the doors later this week, and that will decide how much I like the design. I may switch to a different door design.
And, still stuck on mounting the light box. It may sit on 2x2s

Here's a pic of the Zeo and Ca reactor and the skimmer, at various stages of cleaning and assembly.
Snagged on the skimmer, turns out ER plumbing is not standard and the gate valve doesn't want to fit. I need a bigger hammer!
