I ordered a 36x18 stand for my acrylic 40g breeder but I found out they did not specify the stand was for acrylic .
Can someone tell me if this stand should have special features for acrylic versus a glass tank? I am under the assumption the stands are different since acrylic I believe requires bracing In other words, is tank stand for a glass tank different than tank stand for an acrylic tank?
My acrylic tank was made by Advanced Acrylic and it has half inch thick acrylic panels
I am concerned because another LFS is telling me the stand for an acrylic tank stand is slightly smaller in surface area than a comparable glass tank stand , and they are telling me also an acrylic tank stand needs to be braced in the middle to prevent bowing of the tank.
Any info appreciated
