planning on building a tank 8x5x3. Regardless of glass or acrylic it’s the same weight due to thickness of acrylic.


can someone point me in the right direction on how to design the stand properly? I’m thinking wood?

something I’m considering is creating a catwalk around the stand to get into the tank.


thanks for the help
