Hey Guys,

It looks like I'll be doing my upgrade sooner rather than later (although a little smaller than I initially had planned- but so goes it- at least I have an excuse to upgrade AGAIN :)).

I'm looking at purchasing a 60"L X 30"W footprint tank, and need to know who out there knows of someone (or does it themself) that builds steel/metal stands in or around Orange County (I'm in Mission Viejo). I'd also be interested in them framing a hood out of lightweight metal (aluminum?) so I can just skin both the canopy and the stand with the same stain of wood.

Also, how much do these typically cost (I've always gone with wood)?

Thanks,

Chad

Steel is the way to go on the bottom for sure. Hope you find a guy.

Thanks brotha'...

Anyone out there with steel stands that can provide some guidance?

Doesn't necessarily have to be in OC, but somewhere within an hour or so...

Thanks,

Chad

it depends on what you want. I spent about 200 just on 1.5X1.5x120 (i think) square tubing for my 72X30 tank. I have a 60X24X33 metal stand already made... too bad you are 30 deep
