Hi everyone!
Hope your doing good .I'm faz .I own a 40 gallon fish only tank .
I purchased a 120 gallon for some soft corals and few lps .
I have drilled the tank on the side for peninsula style and wanted to cover the pipes .(unable tendrils underneath tempered glass )
I was planing to build a stand using wood .
So the tank is 48×24
And the stand 54×26
I would need some help choosing the right stand .
Planned of having 4 legs in the front and back .
I'm worried since the tank is 48 inches and the stand is 54 inches . If the stand will break off in few months or years . Since there is a 6 inches gap from the edge of the tank to the last edge of the tank .
Than balance 6 inches is to cover the pips which goes to the sump .
I have attached plan of my design please help me with which design should I go .
Make a stand for 54 the 6 inch gap wont make a difference
Or
Make the stand leg exactly 48 inches leave 6 inches off the end .
Sorry for the my drawing .
Thank you everyone.
