Bought a 75g setup, no stand. I do not want to build my own stand, even though I understand that it's fairly simple. I'd rather use my time elsewhere and buy a stand. I'm thinking about buying this husky workbench, able to withstand 1000 pounds. The tank is a standard 75g, and I have a ruby 36 sump that I would like to fit underneath. I found a 75g stand on facebook marketplace, but it is the aqueon pine one that has a center brace in the middle. I would like for the stand to not have the center brace, so it's easier to do maintenance and whatever else I'd want to do. To fit the sump, I would probably have to fit it vertically through the middle brace at the top. I'd estimate that the tank would probably weigh around 700-800 pounds, so for peace of mind I'm considering purchasing and reinforcing the husky workbench somehow, but I'm not very knowledgeable in that kind of thing. Any ideas on how I would reinforce it? Also considering this aluminum stand, all it needs is some assembling. Any thoughts or help greatly appreciated.
