This one turned out nice:

There was another one I can't find, but the guy used framing brackets and a skeleton frame of 4x4's (I think thats the right size) It had a lower shelf that was green. It was really cool looking, though I'm partial to the cabinet type ones.

PM or contact us if you want to see another option...

95 gallon Wave tank with basic black light unit, stand and glass tops.
Just took the last water out last week - getting ready to pull the last of the gravel and wipe it down - has got to go - maybe $375 for a friend or a bit more if delivered locally.

We have this is pictures - been a great tank for us, we just outgrew it.

I've been looking at options for tanks when I get into town and had a long talk with Deep Sea Aquatics and Dallas North Aquarium. According to DSA they do a lot of business with Aquarium Design Group. The pictures I've seen on the DFWMAS site and DSA's association with ADG are a pretty solid endorsement to me. The tank's are expensive, but they appear to be worth it.

As for Glasscages, I've seen some of their more recent work first hand and it looks good. Their prices are a lot better than most other custom shops as well.

I know this thread is a little bit old but... If your still looking for some plans to build a stand I can send over the pictures from when I built mine i've got a pic of just about every step. I haven't done too much wood work but it was pretty easy to figure everything out. my only complaint about the stand is I wish I would have used higher quality wood to make the shell. Other than that it all worked out great!

If you need some picture just PM me and I can send them over.

If you haven't already bought the 75g, I'm looking to sell my 75g setup and am willing to move it with us when we come in Dec. The stand and canopy were $660.00 with my local club discount when I bought it a little over a year ago. The stand's got fantastic access for getting things in/out. Shoot me a pm and we'll talk price if you're still interested.
