My african cichlids have been breading pretty regular, and I have even caught a few of the surviving fry in the main tank, so I thought with this latest batch of eggs, I would give it a try and raise them.
So, I needed a stand that would hold a 10 gallon tank. I headed to the shed around 3:00 and came out at 6:30 with this:

Its made of 3/4" birch plywood, with red oak trim covering the plywood edges. I didnt have any plans, I just winged it all from my head. Not to shabby IMHO. I biggest problem I ran into was my wood glue was frozen, so I had to use screws to put it together. Ill probably stain it when it gets a little warmer outside.
