Over The Edge metal stands

[11f150]

Does anyone have any experience with this company? You can buy other fully welded stands and also a breakdown version that you can put together. Obviously the breakdown version would be alot better for shipping. They cost around $400 shipped for a breakdown stand that would fit a standard 180 gallon. I asked about a center vertical brace and they said glass tanks are designed so they are supported on the corners.

Here is a breakdown stand picture

I've heard of that company before and believe they've been in business a while. They are 30 mins from my house. I believe they also make and sell the black trim to aquarium builders.
You could also call up any local fabrication / welding shop they could easily make a metal stand. I'm in the process of building a aluminum extruded stand. Sweet looking, but holy cow the cost is just creeping out of control. If I was todo it again I probably would have had a local fab shop make me a metal stand and had it powder coated. I'm building the aluminum stand for a 4ft x 2ft tank I'm way, way, passed the 400 mark.

Im going to get a stand from them for my 50 gallon. Its the zoomed lowboy so its 48x24 for under $200 shipped! All the wooden ones I've seen for that size are $500 up to easily over $1,000 so iron stand it is

Yeah I want a metal stand because I prefer that look better but its hard to find someone that will make one locally. They can make the welded stands but its $500 to get it shipped.
