    thanks...i'm also very happy with the quality of the stand. it is made of red oak wood all around with 2x4 making the mainframe and raised panel design on the doors... it took me a while to find the right place, they were all pretty much quoting me very expensive for the setup around $4,000.00. but that was just to expensive then found this place and they charged me $750 for it and extra to get the raised panel on the doors which the total came out to $950.00. i had given them a picture of what i wanted, although not exactly the same as i had asked for but in reality when i saw the results of this stand i was VERY, VERY HAPPY WITH A BIG SMILE.. had it made locally, at a shop where they do kitchen cabinets.....and sorry about the frag, hopefull later i can get you a frag of it...

    Nice job Ricky, well put together. What kind of reflectors are you using for the halides?
    Hopefully all the frags made it back home safely.

    as for the frags...so far out of the 35 frags that i bought only 3 didn't make it, and 1 of them is the Bobby's Tricolor frag that i bought from you (that was a huge frag) although there could be little hopes cause seems like there are 2-3 small branches that still have color in them..

    The tank I bought it back in October 2008 at San Antonio from a fellow maastard it came with a stand but was to flimsy and well not really nice...so I went here locally to have it custommade in a shop where they make cabinets it's on Houston street by the bridge next to LAredo Community College and for a very reasonable price too... I'm very happy with the quality, cuts,design and well pretty much everything

    Nice! Good to know we have some good carpenters. Did you choose the design or did they just figure the shelves would serve good purpose?

    My dad knows a carpenter he hires to make our cabinets and our desks but I don't know if it's the same guy. I think that guy is near HWY 35 going down Saunders... I THINK it's near by Sam's Liquor Store.

    But good to know... I'm thinking about getting a bigger tank. You've motivated me. lol Until I get my own place though. Hopefully by then I'll be able to put things together without a problem. By that I mean all the tubing.
