I'm going to be doing a major upgrade this week and decided to listen to Daceman and a few others about how it would be best if a tank would be at eye level. So I took apart a regular aga/perfecto stand and improvised it. By no means done, I wil be adding doors and molding to it tommorow. I increased the height by 10 inches as can be seen in picture standing next to regular height stand. The other pictures are to show the degree of the upgrade, from a 90 gallon to a 140 and moving chiller to the kitchen and having sink replaced to make room for the chiller. I'm moving the chiller to keep it out of the same area were the tank is, this way the chiller exhaust will not contribute to tank temp and my apartment will be cooler (has reached 102) an exhaust fan is a few feet away from new chiller placement. Upside down tank is temp housing. Should be done by friday Night

Woodwork and drilling ends today. Tank Upgrade starts Wednesday and ends late thursday, early Friday. It'll be a mess, but worth it when I sit down Saturday to look at it all.
An overview shot for my foreman who wants to see it.

Stand Complete and With extra wood made Ro water bucket housing and Shelf Cabinet. Just need to buy some more wood to make doors, that will be when I get over the pains of upgrade. Woodwork took longer but project should still be done by Friday. Hopefully.
