Seeking company for wooden-skin steel stand (72L x 18W x 30H)

[Valeerii]

Hello everyone,

I need a wooden-skin steel stand for a 168-gallon aquarium measuring 72L x 18W x 30H.

Could you please recommend a reputable company that manufactures such stands? Ideally, located in Texas or neighboring states.

Surprisingly, my internet search yielded very limited results.

Thank you in advance.

Sorry, mine is all wood and was built by a local craftsman in Houston

I live in Dallas and my friend makes steel stands. He builds most of the steel stands for the LFS around here.
As far as wood, I am a carpenter and can wrap it for you.

Some half inch plywood and inset magnets will be the way I go for my steel stand. Instead of doors the panels can be removed.

Hi Sleepingtiger,

Sorry, I was on vacation, just returned online.

How is it more convenient to contact you, via email or DM?I would like to calculate a quote for:

1. Frame (steel or aluminum)
2. Cladding with wood + countertop

Thank you.

Check out Planet aquariums. I ordered a custom 300 Gallon system from them and they made a metal stand with wooden magnetic panels... looks like wood with the flexibility of removing panels for maintenance.... its literally the best thing ever!
