Hey Scott I thought you were going with that metal stand! I guess you figured building that wood stand would be cheaper! It's looking good! You and your wide footprint but shallow tanks!!!! That's your thing! I'm calling you shallow Scott!
We were going to, but the old guy that was suppose to do it for us got totally freaked out and when we went to drop off a deposit at his house, he didnt answer the door or home phone or even his cell phone..and to this day we have yet to hear back from him...hopefully nothing happened to the poor old guy :(..that stand was going to cost around $750..in total, with .5 plywood and foam, the stand has cost around $120!! :) geos are loving the huge space they have now! cant wait till they are all in!

We actually put two pieces together, but it does look pretty cool!!
