Hiiii!
My wife told me she didn't want a bigger aquarium in the living room. So now Im about to have a much bigger sump instead!
Picked up a used 55 gallon. Going to leak test it and put in some big baffles and have a huge fuge. Going to place my 29 gallon marine tank and my wife's 10 gallon freshwater on top. The stand that they are currently on is not built to purpose so we will actually end up with more space once I do this
In the process now of designing how to merge all my tanks together into one stand. (And do it really proper!) But there is one thing that's been bothering me about getting the tanks to sit right...
In the video you can see the 29 gallon is sitting on the stand - the center corner is only going to be supported by the 2x4 running across in the center, directly below it. I cannot think of a way to support all corners of the tank with a 2x4 directly underneath while also having the 55 gallon there as well..
I've probably over designed it, but that middle sitting corner is making me nervous for some reason. Anyone have any input or ideas?
Do you think this will hold up?
