thanks for all the replys.. I did stain the stand myself. It's bombay mohogany minwax polyshades. Its polyuerithane and stain in one. it goes on with a brush and all the brushstrokes just melt away. I did 2 coats of the polyshades and 2 coats of spray gloss clear poly. I have about $200.00 in the stand with wood and hardware and about 16 hours in time in it. thanks again

my problem was it was supposed to be delivered the 15th of may and they were going to call me the week before and let me know where and when to pick it up. Well friday came and I finally called them and they said they have to move the shipment at least 3 weeks back because they had a lot of added orders. well I hate waiting and I had all my help lined up for this weekend. It's not a huge problem I don't want to knock there product but some people need products on the delivery date. I didn't want 3 weeks to go by and have them move it back another 2 weeks. I am sure their excuse was legit but they should have a cutoff date for when you can order for a delivery. I had my order in 6 weeks in advance so I didn;'t feel I should have to suffer for those that procrastinated. I will say that they were very understanding about cancelling my order though and very nice people to work with..

interesting anecdote sir, I'll take it into account the next time someone brings them up.

hey everyone,
well my 180gallon setup turned into a 220 setup. I had problems with Glasscages.com so I cancelled my order and bought a 220 from a lfs for $600.00. its a perfecto aquarium. Has anyone heard of these or have one? The tank looks great very well built and heavy. It says optically clear glass is this anything special?. well here's the pics of my DIY stand and the tank.

do you have the plans for the stand?
i'm going to build a stand for the 125 wide(6 foot x 2 foot)
