Treat the wood. What I discovered on my 90gallon stand when I moved it yesterday, was that all the wood was treated except the bottom panel that was against the floor. Long story short... it started to mold, and now my carpet smells like mold. Treat any surface that will come in contact with water for brief period of times.

Well there won't be a sump under the tank. But I have desided to paint the tank. I found some low VOC Primer and paint that I will be using.

It will look better too
