Ah the joys of christmas and new toys

What dimeshins should my stand be? the main tank is 30 long 10 tall 10 wide .
I want to put some shelves in the stand to.
Do you think 40 inches is a good height?

What mterial would i need to make a stand as in how many 2x4 would i need?

 

[SkiFletch]

40" tall is more enough. Probably a 2x4 in each corner and one in the center of both the front and the back for vertifcal supports. Then a square frame of 2x4's standing on 4" end for the top and bottom frames and a plywood cap for the square frames for torsional support.

Nice work, you gonna door it up or leave it open?

 

[Redstratplayer1]

leave it open
Its just the right size to allow for my 20 gall on top and there is room next to it for a 10 gall mangrove tank.And under it for 2 10 gallons
The stand is 50 long 15 wide 27 tall
