Ok while i was at the pet store looking for a stand for my 29gallon tank i saw two fish that i like.

I bought two yellow watchman gobies. My Tomato Clown and Maroon Clown are leaving these guys alone so thats a plus! Please tell me i made a good choicie with these two fish.

Two in a 29 gal. gives you a 50 - 50 chance of fighting with each other.It's worth a try!

No no two in my 72gallon. I was at the LFS looking for a stand for my 29 and bought two fish. hehe They wanted $102 for a 29 gallon stand. I think i will just build one myself.

Tony i will post pics when they start to move around. Right now they just dashed into my rocks and are hiding. If i can get some good pics within the next hour i will post them. If not i will have pics on Monday night.

Thanks Cath, Yeah i did make my own canopy top for my 72 bow. If i can make a canopy top for a bow tank, i think i can handle making a stand for a square tank. I was just going to buy a stand if i could get a good deal on one. I am even thinking about making a canopy top for my 29 gallon also.

Good luck. Make sure that you use galvanized screws. I just read about someone's diy stand falling apart because the screws rusted

Thanks for that tip...If I remember correctly I think I used galvanized screws on my canopy top.

YAY for DIY Stands... Yeah that was me with the ungalvinized screws lol... but my new one is rough and tough, and it's ugly enough to make any cabinet maker or contractor puke, but I love it. And it only cost 22 bucks to build.
