DIY Stand

unfinishedstand standone

My attempt at a DIY stand. Although it's big enough to fit a 55G (49x15), it just has the 38G on it for now. I also needed another bookshelf, and thought I'd kill two birds with one stone. The whole schmeer cost me less than $100. It was all cut by hand, but thank God for a drill with a screwdriver attachment!

A peek inside where the filters and other fish stuff goes.

(Below) The new canopy. It has a hinge so half of it can open to allow access

to the tank below. I went a little crazy and made it out of Aspen.

20 Gallon Stand and Canopy

Inside this bad boy is a 10G plant scrap tank

(and yes, I did make that door myself).
