Hey all!!! About 5 months ago, I broke my 20 gallon tank trying to move it. The whole bottom came right out. You should've hurd teh curses coming out of my room...especially after realizing the carpet had to be ripped up -01-

So, then I went and purchased a new 30 gallon tank from true Value (which I got way over charged for) and brought it home. Now, Sadly, I diod not have a stand for it. So, the tyank sat on my floor for 2 days, until, my dad came up with a cool way to make a stand. In our town, we have a flea market every October. We had just salvaged an old organ(piano type) and we were going to use it as a computer desk. Well, he decided to turn that into an aquarium stand!

The organ shell is made of somthing really strong. The wood inside is also very strong. The whole stand can hold my dad and I and he is no light cookie!!(lol) nor am I though...

anyways, the stand holds my tank with absolutely no problems. It even has a curtain on the front so I can use teh space underneath for my hamper and aquarium vac/bucket.

I just thought that someone may need to know something as simple azs an organ shell can be used for almost anything!!!

I'll try to get some pics up soon
