So I’m starting to build my tank stand using
2 in. x 6 in. #2 and Better FSC Green Douglas Fir Lumber.
Tank: 220G
721/2 X 24 1/2 X 29 1/2
So far I’ve gotten mostly everything done except the front supports. I added two supports to the back. The stand is solid as hell with a bunch of #10 3/12 inch screws.
But I really want to be able to leave the front of the tank open.
I’m going to build a show piece sump area! So why not show it off!
My question is will the front support the tanks weight! And if not what can I do to be able to leave the front open? The picture show Doesn’t have the rest of the supports that are already there. Just giving you a idea of what it looks like.
