the 75/90 stand is a white pine - 2x4 frame with 1x3 trimming ( doors made of 1x3 as well )
the stain is a light cherry - will look at the can as soon as can find it

very simple stand and canopy - made it in about 3 hours

UPDATE:

Resealed the back of the tank - only to find it leaking in the same spot.

This is going to be a total reseal - including new frame as I found the the bottom frame piece had a crack in it. I know that it shouldn' tmake a difference, but I will feel better as I really don't want to risk 220 gallons of water to end up in the floor, once its set up.

I will post pics of the progress.

I was going to suggest just resealing it..I've done it plenty of times and it's just a matter of feeling safe :) Can't wait to see her!
