stand

Hello guys! Im new. Im starting a 75 gallon cichlid tank. All I have is the tank. starting from scratch after my turtle tank. I need all the advice I can get. Please feel free to school me, I actually want it. I also need just about everything... Should I attend the BFD before buying things?

Oh, it's "editorial time" again...You may or may not want to tune out now... As an enthusiastic all-around aquarium hobbyist, I follow a lot of trends in both the freshwater and marine aquarium world (and, more recently, the vivarium, riparum, and shrimp-keeping worlds!). You might recall I...

I just wanted to do a write up to help anyone who needs a strong and high quality tank stand. This stand is vastly more sturdy costs a fraction of the store bought stands. I used the KingofDIY's basic instructions for framing the stand and wrapped it in a way that's simple and tasteful. I am by...

Hey guys I'm planning on picking up a stand from glass cages. Has anyone gotten stands from them? Your thoughts? Also, does anyone know any other stores that sell 8' by 2' stands? Thanks

Do any of you happen to own a knock down stand by aqueon? If so, please tell me your thoughts on the quality and where you bought it. Thanks! Sent from my VS985 4G using MonsterAquariaNetwork App

I'm setting up a few tanks in my basement (cement floor). I was thinking about the benefit of being able to move them without a complete breakdown (maybe heavily drained) via some casters on the bottom of the stands. Anyone ever done that? Downside? I'd assume that I would need some casters...

Just got the tank fully operational last night (save for a timer for the lights), this was the first time I had turned on all the lights and fish were out of quarantine. Two sponge filters. Potting soil capped with play sand for substrate. Two LED spotlights and a 2-bulb T5 48" fixture...

Recently picked up a couple 40B's that I would like to setup up as QT's. Kinda disappointed with what I'm finding (or lack of) online. Anyone know of a reasonable stand builder in the area? Not looking for anything fancy. 2x4 down and dirty will do. I would build one myself but I don't have any...

I want to say thanks to harlowe777, I was given a skeleton 125g stand and was nervous about putting my 120 Acrylic on it. Checked the forum and came across harlowe777 we chatted a bit and a road trip ensued. :o Once I arrived discussed a few things but at the end he had an idea and Im glad he...

Hello, I currently have a 150 gallon glass aquarium and the standard wood stand. I want to replace the tank for an acrylic 200 gallon it's the same foot print just taller (36"H) do you think the stand can handle the extra load?

Hey guys. So I'm in a bit of a dilemma here...... I have a 110 gallon tank w/fish and water already in it, sitting on top of a pre-fabbed wooden aquarium stand. I'm not worried about the stand itself, as it was engineered specifically to hold the weight of a full 110 gallon tank. But I...

Just bult a stand for bigred..for a 36gln.bowed..

With the petco 1$ a gallon sale approaching, I am planning on adding 2 40b. Has anyone built a double 40b stand, or has plans/sketches of one?

I have been meaning to get around to this, but just couldn't get it done. This weekend I managed to build it, paint it, and put it into position. This will be my first overflow/sump setup. 6 4x4 posts and 2x4 construction with osb top and bottom. Not sure why the pics won't rotate...

I have to move my 55 gallon tank from it's surface and out of the way. My building is replacing the fan coil units and my tank is right where the action is. Does someone have a 55 gallon tank stand I can borrow for one week while the construction workers do their thing? I need it by next weekend.

I have a stand question, and figured I'd post it here. I need to move my 90 gallon and 75 gallon tanks out of my bedroom, and I wanted to know if a Titan ez double stand ( the kind drs. Smith and foster sell) would work for this. The plan is to put the 90 on the bottom, and the 75 on top. The...

Anyone ever install a "euro brace" on a tank? Any other ideas on reinforcing the top of a tank? When building a stand to support almost 1500 pounds are dado joints best, are open dado joints stonger than closed? Sent from my SCH-S960L using MonsterAquariaNetwork App

I've been threatening to make a Ted-Judy-Style stand for a while now....especially since house policy limits any additional tanks to existing tank-occupied floor space but specifically does not have any height limits. (i.e. I can build up, but not out). So here's my first attempt at a tank...

I just finished building my first aquarium stand. It's gonna hold a 75gal on top and a 40 breeder on the bottom. Now I just have to paint and move it in. Sent from my iPhone using MonsterAquariaNetwork app

Ok before I fill my 265 up I want to reinforce the manufacturer stand with some 2x4s, kind of like what Dave did with his 250 build. I just don't trust the factory stands with a tank this big. Can anyone with experience in this and a saw help me out? Funds are tight ( baby on the way) but I...
