DIY breeding stand
I have had three 60cm x 50cm x 50cm tanks tying up my work bench
very annoying
so i decided to build a stand to hold all three, i checked and a standard 180cm x 60cm tank stand would be to small as it does not take into account the extra glass
so i went to a constuction site, scored some scrap wood, grabbed my sander and my dropsaw, some varnish and some nials and some glue for good measure and this is what i built
sorry for the final pic there is not alot of room between the tanks and a wall (but its even closer to the beer fridge)
