Nightster's 29g to 65g rebuild (pics added 5-30-11)

Well I traded a guy my old 36" PC fixture for a 65g tank and stand. Well today I decided to start working on it. I sanded and repainted the tank today, may start on the stand too idk yet. Basically I'm just gonna be transfering everything from my 29g to this tank. Hopefully everything goes smoothly. Here are some pics from what I've done today.

Sweet build nightster!!!

Always enjoy following tank builds!!

 

i wish i could have done something productive today. we are snowed and iced in with 8"

 

Well did a little work to the stand. Ran out of 2x4s oh well, tomorrows another day. I added a section on for my ato sump and I'm gonna put another on the other side for my electrical stuff.

 

Finished up framing the stand out, gave it a good sand and paint too. It was too dark for pictures so ill post some tomorrow.

 

Looking good.

 

Thanks y'all, I didn't get home in time to take pictures mon or tue but I got one today. Here's the frame finished and painted.

 

Looks good Nightster. The stand looks more stable now, I had my concerns.

Nice bikes!!!!!!!

 

Thanks! Before I could rock the stand back and forth a few inches. After some new braces and new hardware its pretty solid.

 

Looking good so far.
