Cabinet for Waterbox 25 AIO Peninsula

DonJuanAntwon · Jun 13, 2023

Any one have any suggestions for a cabinet for waterbox 25 gallon Peninsula? They sell one but apparently the cabinet cant be placed in a peninsula orientation.

Found a cabinet on Amazon that fits the dimensions on the tank but only has a load capacity of 120lbs. What are your thoughts?

I don’t want to do custom if I don’t have to. Thanks!

I think i'd do something a little more sturdy. Have you looked at ikea cabinets? Some of those are a little beefier.

Did you ever figure it out? My recommendation would be to do 80/20. I have the exact same tank and I recently made this:

I ended up getting the waterbox cabinet that fits it and put on a white removable cover

Which stand fits the 25? I thought they didn't have one for that model.

Waterbox has a stand that fits the 25 peninsula but it can only be oriented traditional (non peninsula) because the cutout is on the long side. I have it between two rooms oriented peninsula style and got a white metal cover for the opening that’s removable. It’s really working well. I didn’t find an alternate stand I liked and I didn’t feel like making a custom one.

This is exactly what I'm looking to do. Do you have any plans that you could send me for this? 80/20 is a bti intimidating since I haven't used it before...any help would be greatly appreciated!

I think i deleted this whole project but you can download a software called “frame designer” that lets you create anything with 80/20. They have an option to make a box and I just did that with the dimensions of the tank. It also adds all of the necessary connectors. I think the total was around $150.
