Love the white interior sobos I'm doing the same.

Since I'll have some plumbing going to the basement I'm thinking about putting a drain in the base in case something ever leaks big time but I've never seen that done.

Yeah. I had thought about keeping it. But i knew it would be quite a while before i could start a tank up again. I literally moved half way around the world.
 
Open design stand.
I planned on making a sump or larger canisters toward the side of the tank in the closet hidden in a gutted dresser or work table (easy access sump).

Build:
2 glued 3/4 inch top boards covered with hardwood sides.
2x4 wood stand with screw-on shims added for a bowed/ uneven floor.
Rear flat black painted light mounts with female nuts embedded on the top intended for a Kessil light arm to thread in without using their factory tank mounts.
I like how the carpet shows and the future sump would be out of the way someday, but's it's regular equipment for now.

I went to the local home outlet store and picked up a bathroom vanity. Took some modification but it works really well with my sr-80 tank. The first photo shows how it was for my Nuvo 30l. Then how i modified to fit the new tank.
