new tank

Post by MTS » Sat Jun 23, 2007 1:02 am

Not too good with pictures. Just opened photobucket acct.
Anyway, here is a picture of the new loach tank. My husband made the stand and I stained and urethaned it.

Very nice! I love that stand, the hardware on it alone, makes me want to hire your husband to build one for me, or at aleast send the materials list over to my husband. :wink:

Very pretty tank, nicely done.

Very nice tank, the stand is great. What kind of wood was used?

This is the second stand hubby has made. The first one was for a 48 gal tank and also looks pretty good but he made improvements to the design for this tank. It’s made from basic pine studs. Using a hard wood would have been easier to work with, but much more expensive.

When I get a better camera, I'll try to post some pictures that show off the fish in the tank.
