ok im converting my 55g in to a cichlid tank i have added crushed coral as a substrate but i want to add lots of rocks but dont want to drain and move tank.
the stand is part of an old entertainment center (4 doors below) that i just cut the uprights off and it looks like its made for f-tanks. but i dont have any thing below the tank and i was told that i would need styrofoam or somthing to help soport the bottom glass so it dont crack under all the weight of the rocks.so what i was thinking of doing is drilling holes @ a 90 degree angle up twords the tank from the back in the stand and then using some of that spray foam that you can buy @ hardware store for filling in gaps in Doorways and such and filling up the underside of the fish tank thrue those holes what do you think could it work?
