Got this 75 with filter, gravel, air pump, lights and hood for 100 bucks. It didnt come with a stand so i decided to build one. Here's how it's gone so far..
All I had was a skill saw and a power drill. No table saw chop saw etc and the cuts had to be precise, I did the best I could and built this thing in one day. I used 3 inch drywall screws and gorilla glue.
Yeah it is level, the tv cabinet next to it is a cheap pos and leans backwards making it look wierd compared to the stand. And yes there is a little gap on the back were the tank hangs off a little tiny bit. I'm buying a new 2x4 tommorow and gusseting it so it's more stable before I paint it. wish me luck.
