Nice. You're going to give phischys dad's woodworking skills a challenge.
I assume you're making the canopy as well?

Bravo. I need to find some plans for a diy recirculating skimmer. If I had a digital camera i'd take some pics of the stuff i'm finishing.

-All oak stand. Overbuilt with 2 by 4's. All trim, fluting etc is oak.
-Oak hood for 175w 20k halide
-Overflow, intakes and closed loops drilled by me. (need some real glass bits)

One thing I won't be diy is the 100g tank that the stand is designed to house :)

I love the black backgrounds. I painted the back of my old minibow black. It really made the colors of the corals pop.

looking good!
