I wasn't really sure where the right place to post this thread would be but this section seemed to fit most. I just picked up this tank from Rotaryp04s, it needs a little TLC before it is living room ready by my mom's standards lol. But this is going to be the thread where I will post all progress as my dad and I clean up, paint, setup, etc. Hope you enjoy. :)
 
I would re-enforce the stand including the bottom base just incase you add a heavy canister or sump. Nice pickup, look forward to seeing the final results.
 
Yeh I am not gunna have a canister, I'm gunna have an emperor 400 and an aquaclear 110, if it didn't already come with and emperor I would have put 2 ac 110's

Yeh I started off with just using a vinegar/water spray and scrubbing but that wasn't enough. Did a lil google search and made a paste out of white vinegar and baking soda. It worked quit well. I have to go finish them tomorrow if there is more. It was a sump the previous owner had it. It has some very thick half inch glass.

Ok so we are going to paint the stand a redish brown to match the furniture in the living room, (moms request) so we took the doors off, then I hit the bottom out because we are going to replace that. It was really cheap crap and it was caved in. My dad is a Forman at a commercial door shop so he makes everything there and he is going to bring his belt sander home so it will take 20 mins to sand it and prep for painting.
