52g Cube build

[Andrew_B]

Got a good deal on a real nice RR cube tank. It's 52g 24x24x21 tall with a reef ready overflow. Drain is 1.5" So quite a bit of water can get moved the sump on this small tank. Decided to build a stand for it. No idea what I'm going to do with it, or if i'm going to even keep it. I don't really need another tank! Might just finish it up, get or make a sump, plumb it, hang a led or mh pendant fixture and call it done and ready to sell.

It's real sturdy. Not perfect though. I really just need to stop being cheap and buy a table saw instead of using a jig saw!

But here it is, Turned out pretty good. Going to stain it with a real dark brown.

Andrew, Very nice job and looking good . I will paint and add some molding with different color so the stand will have 3D look

Very Nice!, Loving the simple design and it really accentuates the beauty of the glass cube. Looking forward to seeing this all finished and stocked. What do you have in mind for lighting? Hanging it from the ceiling or running some conduit?

Here is a link to that conduit method I really liked

Exactly what I was planning on doing. Should be real easy to do

I have a conduit pipe bender if you need to borrow it for the light hangers. I live in Spring, Louetta/249
