Ive seen some pretty nice aquarium room dividers on here, just thought id share mine. mines not as nice as im not much of a carpenter, but i gave it a shot. tank is a used 265 acrylic, i recently got. As you can see in the pics, it needed a whole lot of cleaning and some small leaks to repair. The stand also needed some serious reinforcement. project took a couple of hours everyday for about a week.

Heres some pics with it stocked and the final lighting scheme.
There are still alot of scratches that need to be buffed out, and some more aesthetic work for the wall but its pretty much done, just need for the water to clear up from the new gravel.

I think you did a great job!
Now get a big-ass piece of driftwood as a centerpiece to complete the look. :headbang2
