Well after an issue with my 90g i decided to start over with a 40g breeder. The tank is a brand new Aqueon 40b that i found on craigs for $40! I decided to try my first DIY stand and it is comming along nicely with 2x4 frame (ok maybe a little overkill). I decided to build the stand at 37" for a total tank height of 53". The sump is a 29g that i got on craigs for free then i stripped it and resealed it, i will be building the baffels soon! Here is where im at so far.

I had the tank drilled on the bottom for a 1 inch bulkhead and the returns will be comming up behind the tank.
I still have to enclose the stand and build doors for the front and right side before the stand is finished. More pictures to come!
