    Stand is made of pine, alot of it too...whole top piece and bottom is like 3/4 inch. I have the canopy too but didnt get it in the pic cause its on the other side of the room. The tank is the new deep dimension marineland tank. 6'x3'x27" I have the plumbing and 2 vortech mp40s for it so far. I have an equipment list but i dont have the time to post it rite now....ill update later.

    the stand is beautiful. i wish i had more time when i set mine up. :-/ i had 2 weeks to set up my 135, i had to buy the tank stand and move and combine the 3 smaller tanks. house deal went through alot fast then originally thought so i didn't have time to order a nicer one or do anything with the stand i got at the lfs.
