DIY 300 Gallon Stand and Canopy

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Very nice build, it looks fantastic!
Thanks for sharing, threads like this inspire me to work harder on my tank/stand project:D
 
i want detail instructions. looks nice
 
Thanks again for all the compliments. Been a while since I checked in around here. I've been doing a lot of car stuff lately, so I haven't done much in terms of aquarium projects recently.

Sorry to disappoint, but I really don't have anything in the way of instructions. I drew up some rough plans, but I'm not exactly sure where they are, and they weren't very detailed anyway. I'm much better at building than I am at putting my ideas on paper.

Wow what a great job! How much did you spend for it?

I think I'm somewhere around the 500 dollar level for materials. Maybe 600. All those hinges and mouldings racked up some cash.
 
Here's an updated picture. After kicking my green algae bloom in the crotch with my UV sterilizer (THERE's a long story) I got the tank resituated by getting the driftwood back in there, artificial plants back in place, and front and side panels scrubbed clean. Here she is as of just a few minutes ago.

HI I WAS CHECKING OUT THE STAND THAT YOU BUILT, THAT THING IS BEUTIFUL. I WOULD LIKE TO BUILD ONE JUST LIKE IT. I HAVE ALL THE TOLLS TO DO THE JOB BUT I WOULD NEED THE DIMENTIONS OF THE STAND AND THE MESURMENTS OF ALL THE CUTS AND HOW YOU FASTENED THEM TOGETHER IF YOU WILL WOULD BE WILLING TO DO THAT ? LIKE DRAW UP SOME PLANS THAT I CAN FOLLOW AND IF YOU WANTED TO SELL THE PLANS THAT WOULD BE OK WITH ME ALSO PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF THIS REQUEST WOULD EVEN BE POSIABLE
THANK YOU JOEFISH47
 
Beautiful build. Where did you get those big plants? They are fake, correct?
