Nice touch with the door casing and corner accents used to frame the tank against the wall

Thanks! We had reclaimed barn wood around it but it never looked quite right. Behind the tank is my fish room so we had to finish off that hole somehow.
 
Here is mine.

I've built a few. The peninsula had to contain everything underneath and on the wall side. Stupidly over built. Progress and a couple finished shots. The other is a smaller stand I built for a friend and only have a picture prior to staining.

Here is the start of mine. I built it out of repurposed wood from free stuff on CL, except for the doors. I purchased 1/4 inch sanded ply and primed MDF trim to build them. I will post the finished project soon.
