Sold it to save up for my reef tank, but I just couldn't let go of my freshwater planted tanks! So I bought this. Not sure who makes this stand, but one of the LFS here sells them.

Here is the latest pic of mine. I actually have the doors on it too, but am out of town on business so I will have to update the pics later. Here is my build thread The stand will be 8' 2" wide once the counter top goes on, and will be 39" tall or so. It will hold a 75 gal tank recessed in the center, and then a 22 gal tank on each side. The sump will be a 50 gal tank. Skimmer goes in the left cabinet, and all electronics, and the computer (yes an actual computer) to control the tank goes in the right cabinet. LCD monitor will be wall mounted to the wall on the left side of the stand

Anyways this was just a temp/holding tank while the 90 was in process.

This is my Home Built 1" 9-ply plywood stand. It is 40" tall and was actually my first big wood project. I am a welder so I make everything out of metal. I overbuilt the stand and put a full width supports between each door to support the weight. I will have to cut a hole in one of those now because I want to add a sump. Should have thought ahead.
