It's not great but here it is.
Simple 2x4 and 4x4 construction with 3/4" CDX for doors, shelf and under the tank. I need to build an all new stand for the 150 Tall. It'll be a maple cabinet made to match our kitchen cabinets (crown molding and all) It will also have 7' tall side cabinets on both sides of the tank.

Thanks! the wood is actually 3/4" birch vaneer plywood. I gave the top a good sanding then stain. the pattern just happen to turn out that way. I dubbed it "Tiger Birch". The pattern of the wood is the first thing people say about it when they see it. I didnt plan it happening.

Now I'm worried mine will look like crap compared to those!!! I'm thinking I can do everything but the doors. I'll just have to pony up some $$ for that.
