help with building a stand

[bmooney31]

I'm getting ready to begin setting up a 220 in the next few weeks and I"m going to build a stand next. the 220 is 72x24x30 and I just bought a 125 gallon sump that is also 6'. I've built stands before but the sumps were smaller than the display so no big deal. How do I build this stand bigger than 6' so I'll have space for my external pump and and not lose the structural integrity of the stand on the corners of the 6' display? Any info or pictures would be appreciated.

Thanks
Bob

Good question Bob and one I can't answer. But here is a free bump! LOL!

Steel? I love steel, less supports. Then i would wood trim the entire thing! People really over build steel stands. I would run the pumps from a wood cabinet next to the steel stand?
