Not done but it's a start

I have been asking so many question on here and finally 2 months later I can put some picture. Thanks to everybody

The tank came with the top so build a base to match the top


Staining the base


My base rock


The base is done and match perfectly now need to work on more rock and sand

 

Very nice start.
Good job!

 

yea! looking good~

 

what size tank, looks like a 120 deep?

 

Wow nice job on the stand. Looks great so far.

 

So far so good.

 

Looking real nice. One thing to consider is the window there, albeit on the side, it may be an algae producer. I have that black back drop (used for the back of the tank) on the side of mine, for a different reason but that will block the sun.

 

Very good observation! The left side of your tank will become an algae haven. This is not a good thing. I would either try a window shade or put a heavy tint on the window and see how that works. If it doesn't than try the same tint on the left side of the tank and then as a last resort put the black background on there. The other thing is the water temperature might get high so keep an eye on that. I can see your a good carpenter. That was my trade. Good luck and keep the pics coming!

 

Thanks and good observation everybody I am planning on putting a good looking curtain that will block the light. My house is under construction and that window will become a hallway so it wont be a problem. but for now I will put a curtain.
It is a 120
What's the difference between et regular 120 and 120 deep?

 

Looks great!! Congrats!! A 120 deep is deeper, lol.
