Thanks peeps for the comments. Sorry for the fuzzyfish, as soon as you re-size the pics to forum bite size, they dont come out so good. The wood is stained dark green with a beech lid, I believe the french style for that colour scheme is 'Provonce' The UG is made entirely from 21.5mm overflow piping, I will remove the centre upright as it detracts from the span of the 6ft tank, it was installed because the tank was divided into three sections originally. The stand was built for a tier of two 6 foot tanks, I used to breed the livebearers when at Uni, there was a bottom 6ft tank for rearing (not shown in pics). I have sold the second tank recently (Glass only)
