I love this! You put more thought into the comfort of the fish than the aesthetics of the table, which has resulted in a beautiful and extremely functional piece. Very well done! I’d love to have one of my own. 😊

This table arrived well packaged and on time. kzbin.infoUgkxn94T8Mu1iMnsLCMNOI9srXSsLkI4JXKW Like another reviewer advised, I pulled everything out and made sure everything was included (everything was!). I built it alone and it took me about an hour. The color is great and for the price the lift part works well. As others have mentioned, it’s not the smoothest opening/closing, but it works. The screws do show, but I plan to order white sticker covers if that bothers us too much. Really happy with this table! UPDATE: it’s been over a year since we got this coffee table and we still love it! It gets HEAVY use as our dining table, foot rest, and school desk. Over time, the opening and closing mechanism has gotten smoother. I added a new photo with the white screw cover stickers. They blend in perfectly and make it look a little cleaner. 100% recommend!!!

[@creepermaniac8027]

What do you mean? Did you buy the table from the link and build it into an aquarium table?

[@shannonmackey3153]

Beautiful! To all the folks saying it “would be hard to clean”.... why? It would actually be EASIER than a standard aquarium... it’s lower to the ground and you can access the entire surface easily. It would be a joy to clean compared to some of my tanks! Great job, man... truly beautiful.

[@katiehirst1782]

saaaaameesies

[@autozephyr7249]

Nice build! One thing to consider is that those caster wheels you have it sitting on are a very small surface area, meaning that the entire weight of the tank (water + substrate + construction materials) (about 400 kg) is localized at a small point of contact. If the wheels are uneven then a majority of the weight could be sitting on one or two wheels. Probably not an issue if the support board the caster wheels are mounted to is solid wood, but something like mdf might shear under those conditions, causing the wheel assembly to puncture through the material and likely break the glass above.

Awesome. I'm jealous of your "furniture" right now. I like your non-puzzle build videos. Please continue with those!

[@GregMakesThings]

To answer the most frequent questions I've had: 1. The wood has no issue holding it up, I spread out the load evenly on the 4 casters (wheels) which have square supports of 10cm edge length, so I have

[@DanScottChannel]

I think your tank is awesome and yes, the silicone that holds the glass is enough for the tank inself. However, the base "platform" should have some solid legs extending to the floor IMO, not just casters that are probably screwed in with relatively short screws correct? I suppose if the whole thing sits stationary, there is no danger but if one were to roll it and a caster became encumbered, the screws could possibly tear right out of the wood base and become compromised...

[@subarunatsuki7994]

Ooof

[@Gracejohnys]

Greg's Channel hi Greg, isn’t this stressful for the fish? :(

[@GregMakesThings]

@@DanScottChannel It requires a lot of force to roll, so I haven't had any issues. Those casters are made to withstand 100kg each and it's a little less than that (plus when it's written 100kg it often means 200kg because of manufacturer margins)

[@GregMakesThings]

@@Gracejohnys I added silicon between the top plate and the rest so that the fish don't feel the vibrations of the glasses and/or plates when I eat on the table :)

[@jacacc12]

After all that hard work and such a good job it would have been great to see more of the tank & fish from different angles and also when it was lighted up. But well done on such a fantastic tank and feature for your home that will give you and your family many hours of relaxation.
