Since I could not find a tank with the dimensions i wanted like my previous tank. (72x30x24). I decided to settle with a standard 210 :D

Pretty much from start to finish here:

I picked up the tank 2 weeks ago on April 16th

Started to Stain the stand a week later and also gave the tank a good scrubbing. April 23rd

I had my dad build me a canopy cause I did not want to pay $300 for a new one... but it turned out really nice! I like it. :) We finished it today and also stained it as well. Gave the tank a final cleaning before we bring it in! April 29th.

Had to cut a hole on the side of the tank in order to get the FX5 in and out as needed..

Thanks Sean! I wish he cut the opening part into 2 parts though. It is a pretty heavy lid to open.. and I HOPE my glass tops can open properly..
