Thanks! I am still moving rockwork around and figuring out where to mount corals. The boyfriend thinks Im ridiculous.. LOL! The stand took a while to build, but I wanted something that would look like a nice piece of furniture.

very well done. Did you seal the birch or stain it or what? It has a nice glow.

Actually, I used an exterior stain in white. Its almost like a "white wash" and transparent enough to see the woodgrain. The exterior stain helps seal the wood from water and salt.
 
Also can you please explain your LED set up on what colors where used. I like the crisp look, just not sure if the camera played a big part.

Thanks BamBam! I used Cool White Cree XP-G and Royal Blue Cree XT-E LEDs with a ratio of 1:1. Both colors are on individual dimmers, but I like to keep them 50/50. The pictures are pretty true to color. The 50/50 mix is actually not that blue, which I like. Im debating on getting a stunner strip to play around with additional colors.
