3 display tank

[gonzalez78]

This is the start of my new build, will hold 3 display tanks. Middle will be a 40 breeder and the side will have an 18x18x18 terrarium on each side. My two favorite hobbies side by side, pdf and saltwater.

Lookin good. What kind of materials are you gonna use to skin it?

 

[gonzalez78]

Just some luan they sell at my work about 1/4" thick then I'll add some molding and then make 3 canopies one for each.

 

[Grant W]

Sounds nice

Cool idea. Looks like you're doing a good job with implementation too.

 

[gonzalez78]

Thanks, I still need to get a couple more 2x2 so I can add a bit more support to the side stands then plywood for the top, bottom and shelves then wrap it up and a little paint.

 

[Grant W]

Hurry up!!!

 

[gonzalez78]

Wish I could Grant but it's half hour to my work so I can get more supplies, also need to wait for payday since I'm low on funds at this time just having moved a few weeks ago to cloverdale.

Those are the ones you do NOT want to lick, right?

Not recommended licking any animal, these the wild ones are poisonous but since mine don't eat their normal diet they're not. Still I don't handle them because they absorb through their skin and I'm afraid of introducing a disease that would kill them.

It's gonna be a fun setup once you're done.

Yeah it is, I'm also thinking of building the stands separate then just putting a few screws in to set them together that way if we ever move again I can take them apart and it will be a much smaller stand.

 

[gonzalez78]

Just finished skinning the stands, wife wants to paint it but does not know what color.

 

[Grant W]

What color is your furniture?

 

[Grant W]

Looks good so far

 

[gonzalez78]

Ummmmm.... black. I want a light color maybe a light brown or something. Thanks I'm satisfied so far with how it's coming along.
