@urbaneks That is just one big hunk of awesomeness right there! Do you have a build thread for this beauty? Would love to see more. Thanks for sharing.

My latest and greatest diy led/ canopy... Just gotta work with the wiring when the new tank is up....

It looks good I'm fixing to do the same thing

Just finished this up for a friend of mine. It's 1 stand for his 120g and 57g with a 75g sump in the cabinet. Also a canopy for the 120 and a "floating" canopy for the 57 to keep the rimless look.

Just have to fix some little things like the light leaking through.

This is awesome nice work

Here is my frag tank stand my brother and I finished. Now we need to do a canopy for the DT. I can say it doesn't compare to some of these stands. They are a work in progress. I want to build more after seeing these.

Everything about this build is awesome. I want one.

Crued-much appreciated. If you live in Arizona, I'd be happy to help you build one. [emoji1]

Forgot to mention that alot of these builds look like "A Work of Art", can't wait to see more.

Here's mine

Here is the cabinet that I built. The beam, doors and counter are made from reclaimed barn wood. Feel free to PM me with questions. Thanks for looking.

Here is a FTS Including the beam which came out of a 150 year old barn in Penn.​

Another FTS​

Before water went in - You can see how the counter turned out. The counters use to be barn floors, in the same barn the beam came from. I left the boards with heavy distressing.​

Here is a close up of the doors. The doors were made from barn fencing that came from Kentucky. All 4 doors can be removed to make maintenance easier.


Here is a shot with the front doors removed. I used 2x8 headers across the top to avoid a center beam. Makes access to the sump very easy.​

Here is a shot with all the doors removed and the trap door that conceals my cords​

Love it!

Wow, very creative. Thank you for sharing.

This is my Arts and Crafts Stand for my 120gal reef system.
Built with Rift-sawn Red Oak and finished with a custom stain and painted panels and trim.



And here's a second one I built for a client; but with a full sized canopy to cover the tank.



And my latest model scaled down for a Fluval M60.

Awesome. Thank you for sharing.

This is, hands down, the most beautiful stand I have every seen! Freaking amazing!
