Nice job...Is this for an existing stand or did you build that was well?
 
Nice! keep us posted!
 
wow makes me wish i had skill, whst size tank?
 
Thanks for the complements. The stand came with the tank offa craigslist. I dont know, yet about the stand. Its all 3/4" ply. I dont know if I feel comfortable with that holding 600LBS+. I re-finished the stand and the doors. Ill post pics when I get all of it finished.
 
This is how is started. And the stand stained. And my wood.

Nice craftmanship going on there. Maybe rent a router if it's not too late (?)
 
I wouldn't worry too much about the strength of the stand but if your concerned about the weight you could always reinforce each of the corners with a piece of 4x4
