Sorry I screwed up, that fits a 40G Breeder, not the Zoo Med 50G Low Boy Frag Tank. Thanks for pointing that out to me.
If anyone finds a suitable stand at a reasonable price for this tank please post up!!!

Well good day everyone,

Looking to build a shallow beginners SPS frag tank, and looking for ANY, good bad or indifferent comments, suggestions, critics.

This build will be around the Zoo Med 50g Low Boy frag tank. So first, need to decide the best way to make this reef ready.

1. Should I drill the base in the corner or,
2. Drill the back with an overflow box.

Reason I choose this tank is that it will fit on a Petco metal stand which are about $50

Next I'm going to match this up with a 20G Long from Petco as a sump. So any suggestions on the best way to setup a sump on a 20G Long.

That's it for now, look forward to any help.

The low boy will fit on a Marineland 48x24 stand, I know this because I have one sitting in basement right now. I'm not sure about aqueon stands.

I believe you'll have to check petsmart for the marineland, the petco by me doesn't carry any marineland stands or tanks, but the petsmart does. But that could just be a regional thing.
