So I will have my hubby list cost and materials later this week but I want to share pictures of the stand. Everybody helped with this project. My FIL Tom and My hubby Curtis built it. My MIL Kim and I sanded and filled all the holes with wood filler. Curtis and I put on the first coat of stain that my BIL picked out. Then this morning Curtis and Sera(8yo) sanded it again and we applied the second coat of stain.
I think it came out great since it was a first for us. We are going to add siding today and also the piece of wood that sticks out on the right is going to be turned into a shelf.
We are going to set up the tank tonight and get the guppies into their new home. We are planning on putting on doors and building shelves for the inside. My hubby did a 1 inch lip over the top of the stand because we like the way it looks. This was fun. Now I wish I had saved my money and built a stand for my 55 gallon.
