Ah where to start! I guess I will start with an equipment list

Flow : 3x Tunze 6100 streams with single controllers. I also have a closed loop with a Dolphin Ampmaster 3000. For the return I use a mag 12.
Sump: 60g custom acrylic sump . Sump houses my 2 skimmers, Phosban reactor, return pump,chiller pump , heater and Aquacontroller probes.

Closed loop feeds four 1inch bulkeads and has 6 outlets total.
For fish I have a medium PBT, 2 PJ cardinals,2 bicolor anthias and 3 lubbucks wrasses.
With that said I will start with some stand construction pics.
While it was in frame stage
Upside down
As you can see I wanted the stand to hold it weight
Oh BTW here is my crude thought of what I wanted to build .
The idea was to have enough room for all the equipment I planned on running and still have all the cloosed loop stuff.
Here is the stand inside with the frame sealed and the top stained. Yes as you can see there is another stand in these pics

It was the first one .Which was too small for everything so thats the reason for this bigger one.
