What size is the tank and where did you get the stand from? I have a 5x2x2 that I want to convert up and (hopefully) look something like that...

That's awesome, I am looking at building a stand as well - probably much more basic than your own though. That Mitchelli enclosure is fantastic - I have to thank you for putting together such awesome display enclosures...
...my Missus was getting a bit upset at all the talk of Monitor setups around the house until she saw some top display ones and is now deciding where she can put them in the house just like furniture pieces!

Girlfriend loves them all except the RBBS something about looking evil... but thats probably why I like em | Freerider - I definately see my house headed the same way (here's hoping)...
I am planning on the study becoming a study/herp room and then having display enclosures throughout the house...
At the moment I am planning out my 5x2x2 and hopefully will have it cleaned some time this week, then start slogging away at it. Hopefully in a few weeks time the Ackie can move in and the Diamond can move into the Ackie's old enclosure...
But as I said, long term I would love Mertens or two and that Mitchell's enclosure you have setup looks tops, I will definately be looking at a similar style of setup.
