Mike and I have recently began shopping thrift stores, KSL.com, and craigslist for used things. It's really fun. We needed a new fish tank stand when we moved to this house because our tank doesn't fit underneath the cabinets here like it did at our last place. We had looked online at a lot of stores and also at pet stores when we would make it to civilization and we decided that we just couldn't afford one... until I looked at ksl and found this one used. After sanding, painting, and sealing, it looks like this. It used to have a lovely 80's oak finish, but we felt this black antiqued look went better with our black and dark furniture.
Our poor rainbow got a little stressed out we think when the tank was cleaned, and unfortunately passed away the day after we had put the tank on the new stand. We loved this rainbow, were happy with his growth and hope that he made it to fish heaven.
