Default lastlight's 93

Figured I'd better put my new end-table to good use!

I started with a pico tank but had a few leaks on account of it having no end pane and nothing but tape holding it together:



I then picked up a new tank and Concept Aquatics Aquariums was kind enough to void all warranties by drilling a few holes in the back. I glued my failed pico in place:



Cured overnight and voila my end-table has been transformed =)

Like I tell my wife it *could* be hookers and blow... so stand back and let me do this LOL.

The tank is a stock Marineland 93. Those clowns advertise the footprint as 30x30 but that is trim to trim. The tank itself measures 29x29x24 I think.

The stand is another quick lastlight special. I have Rona make all the cuts to the plywood then slap it together in the kitchen and add my trim.

It's 20 feet from my office right where I left it. My buddy is still getting his basement ready to receive the glass (which still needs to be cut apart).
