100 gallon build thread...

[aalvarado87]

Its been built for a while but i had some pics so i figured i could put some stuff up on reef2reef. I really wanted a high stand so that you didnt have to bend over and look into the aquarium but could stand and observe it. My stand is 44 inches tall...
My tank is a custom build 100 gallon 48x24x20 front panel is starphire

Stand being built. This was my first woodworking project.

I believe the plywood is birch i believe and I plan on giving it a nice reddish dark stain...
For height reference my mom is 5'4"

finished staining the bottom it has a cherry one bottom and a red mahogany top coat i love it

end result now for the plumbing
