And do you happen to know the thickness of the steel tubing?
Is it 1/8 inch thick?
And the outer of the steel tubing is what about 1.5 inch?

Sorry for all the weird questions lol

Sorry for all the weird questions lol

Nice build, if you dont mind me asking, how much did you pay for the steel stand ?

Right at 200.00 with powder coating.

Only $200 for that stand powdercoated and all? That is a steal. No pun intended.Whp put that together for you? Please post detailed pics of how you skin it.

I would like some info on this too. We are about to move and I am going to set up a new tank. I would feel better having powder coated metal than wood

Kevan knows a place in the Boro area that will do them for about the same price i paid, I would not recommend the place that did mine as we had a price issue.

I sure will as soon as i get some ideas from a professional designer that works for a Co owned by a friend of mine, I'm looking for a modern look with no doors just a sleek look not made of wood. Gotta wait and see what he comes up with.

Diablo DC 170 by Reef Octopus It's small but skims like a beast so far.

Nope went with a RDSB instead and will run Ecobak until it matures, Did not like all the salt creep and work cleaning it.

I got the light hung this morning and got it programmed and am quite pleased with it so far, Now it will depend on how well it grows sticks for me
