I got tired of bending over or squating down to look into or work on my aquarium so I started a new stand project this weekend. Right now I've got a 29 gal tank that will go on it, however I built it to the dimensions to fit a 55 gal should I decide to upgrade again. The top of the stand will be 46" tall putting most of the tank at eye level.

This is just the shell (and it's upside down in the picture), I've still got internal bracing to weld up to hold the weight and then the whole framework will be covered in stained oak with two doors in the front for access to the two inner shelves I'll have. I also built the legs so that they can individually be leveled, I've got a rough tile floor that it will sit on.

It looks like it's gonna be very sturdy. I've been re-purposing furniture to turn them into fish tank stands.A friend of mine turned an old model tv into one by cutting around the top so that it would lift off and put lights under the top. He even put the light switch on the tv knob.

looks really good
