Show me Your Fancy STANDS!!!

^^ That is really nice, love the looks of curly maple myself.
This is by far my favorite long running thread on here, love seeing it pop up.
I needed inspiration to start on my new canopy/cabinet for my new 150g.

I couldn't agree more. I love this thread.
 
Not done yet, but making progress. Probably a couple more weeks on the stand base and then the hood will start.

Here is my 65g pentagon that I built into my entertainment center. The sump was in the basement and the top panel pops off for feeding maitenence.

Sisterlimonpot, Thanks. You are correct it is walnut. I can't take credit for the handy work, but I'm enjoying the end product. I will post here with the finished product. I have more pics in my build thread. It's still ongoing.

Corsi, Nice. I like how it's all integrated together. Very polished.

Sweet. Nicely done. I think I'd rather watch the aquarium instead of the TV. :)
 
Well this thread has been full of great ideas, and some beautiful stands.

Here is my 120 rimless:

Very clean, good design. Are you planning anything for under your sump to keep carpet clean in the event of a spill or overflow? Is the canopy attached to the wall?

Thanks.
This was a picture just after the stand was complete. Wood will be installed inside the stand under the sump. There should never be an overflow unless the sump, or tank cracks - which I will have bigger problems to deal with than the carpet :)

Like this:

There will also be another cabinet built on the opposite side of the tank to house dosers, ATO, controller, and all electronics.

Very sleek design and I love the sliding doors. The wood is an awesome decor as well. Good luck with you build.
 
I like how the canopy is suspended from the ceiling. Neat and clean look and easy access to the tank when needed. :)
