I am getting ready to set up a 90 gallon reef tank and the only thing I still need is a stand. I've been looking to buy one online but they are all pretty expensive so I think the best route to go would be to just build one. Unfortunately, I have weaker building skills than anyone I know lol. If anyone could help me build something for a reasonable price, I would definitely appreciate it. If we can do it cheaply enough, I may also want to build a canopy at some point. I don't mind making a bit of a drive either since I live in Pontiac and I don't think too many people here are too close to me. Just let me know.

You can build a basic frame for under 50. Then you can skin it and add doors to your liking. That can add lots of money depending on what you want.

I haven't gotten the chance to post pics of the awesome stand Jared built for me yet because after I brought it home, I stained it in what I thought was warm enough temperature only to find that the stain didn't dry and ran pretty badly. So once I get that sorted out with a little steel wool and re-staining, I will be posting pics. Thanks again for the awesome work. It's going to look great in my living room.
