Is there a ledge around the tank at the moment?

No Paul. wasnt originally planed for, so I'll have to built the ledge first. Thats the easy part. Making it look good, Well, me and finishing carpentry don't see eye to eye HAHAHA

Then it shouldn't be that difficult, just buy a tile that suits your taste and use its dimensions to build the ledge along with the vertical tile for the shelf thickness, then you can pretty well get by without much cutting at all.

Can tile be cut with a regular glass cutter?

For the small amount you need a Dremel should be fine.

got a link to the tank pic?

I love that you have a level right beside the tank

I would be inclined to leave it alone and buy a coffee table
