Check out untamed's 400g build (Link). He used wood as a "bar" surround around the tank that goes with your bar top theme.

Looks like a great start! Side note, what's your dads platinum record for?!

Yea what Greg said.
That looks like a sweet shack your living in. I'd make the stand to match the cabinets of the bar.

Ya that's a good idea I also still have some of the wood from the bar countertop left over in the garage just would have to find someone who could mill it for us
