Has anyone built a stand/canopy for a bowfront?

[kevjtomy]

I'd love to see some pics if anyone has done this. I (we) plan to buy a house within a couple of years. In the meantime I am going to build a nice stand and canopy, so when we move I can transfer.. The one I bought from the store worries me. Seems so flimsy... I have a 72g BF.

I have recently finished the base for a 225gal acrylic bowfront. I have not hung the doors or hardwood panels on it (pictures will do it more justice), but the tank is up and running. Email me and I will send pics directly. For some reason I cannot post pics here.

Good luck!

There is a fellow over at Aqualink that goes by RoyG that built a beautiful stand for his 155 bowfront. Let me see if I can find it for you.

Okay, found him. He goes by reefmaniac at reefcentral. Here is a link to his page with the 155 and custom stand. He goes into a bit of detail on how the construction was handled.

I'm going to build a stand and hood for a 92gal corner. I am still researching but am about to start the hood. When I finish I will post pics. (if it looks good!)
