I finally finished the frame for the tank im building! It came out to being about a 40g tank. Now i just got to call the glass shop and get the glass cut to the right dimensions and put it all together. Im so excited :hmm3grin2orange: I'll post a DIY thing when the glass is in and it's 100% finished.

nope there seperate, but it fits into the stand so tightly it looks like one big piece :P theres maybe an 1/8 of an inch of extra space so i hope the water doesnt make it expand or something lol
