Aquarium stand help!

[reefer2021]

I am in the process of investing in an aquarium anywhere from 175-210 gallons... I am having one heck of a time finding a stand to support a tank of this size. Any suggestions??

You can try glasscages.com they offer stands for their tanks. Or depending on if you just need a simple stand, building isn't hard.

Build it yourself? A @RocketEngineer built stand can handle that tank size easy peasy.

The other thought, when I purchased my most recent tank from Glass Cages, they also made stands. They have restructured the company and not sure if they still do that, but worth a call.

yeah build it. dont forget to include ledges for your beers.

the next stand i build like in a few weeks will have a 16" ledge on one side and a 4" ledge on the other

the other nice thing about building a stand is you can seal off an electrical room from the rest of the area. you can have a door on the short side that opens to that sealed area

I was just at @Glasscages picking up my glass a couple moths ago and they were building stands. I would recommend them for your tank and stand.

@Jekyl. great point. @reefer2021 you certainly can make your own stand. We do have some stand options. They may be a fit for you or not. You do have options. sorry for your challenge in finding option. This forum is great for support though. Enjoy the journey!

Thanks so much for the mention @redfishbluefish! Many options out there to include building your own.

Thanks so much for the support @mehaffydr. We are working hard to support better and better every day.

If you have any ability to use a saw and powertools i would go the DIY route and build a perfectly fine decent looking stand. Can build it for cost of shipping probably(though $7 2x4s today at HD ticked me off).

Unless you want furniture quality in which case i would try to find a local woodworker.

The Rocket Stand as mentioned above is a tank of a stand. They are easy to understand and require minimal tools.
