DIY STAND - you can do it when you b&q it

[mystic.bertie]

i bought this 5x2x2 seabray tank, stand, sump, pump, pipework f for £130, i knew the cabinet would need some work done to be more suitable for my living room, so after some thought and a lot of work here is what it looks like with some water in it, oh and we painted the background on dark blue, the tank has a corner weir
before

after the b&q treatment

the tank side by side with my 6.5ft rena tank, i think my diy tank looks better actually.

Isn't B&Q like homedepot?

Can you post some more details on the types of materials used?

Very nice result. What's happened to the original stand? Did you completely re-build or re-clad it with the B&Q wood?

Tempted to go into my kitchen to see what I can raid for my stands
