Hey guys I’m nearing the finish of my diy 310 gallon reef ready aquarium wood stand. My question is should I do some sort of waterproofing for the top of the stand that my 310g rimmed planet aquarium will be sitting on? What would you guys recommend or is it good as is?
I will be adding decorative trim work around the entire perimeter top and bottom and side edges of the stand as well as doors on the front. The top trim I planned on having raised slightly to somewhat hide the bottom black rim of my tank.
Formica laminate? Paint? Stain? Varnish? Sealant? Caulk? Is it good as is? Let me know your thoughts or what you did and has worked and held up through the years. Pics of my stand build below and some up close shots of the top
