This will be a slow build. I got a 230gal tank that needs to be resealed and a really nice canopy. I started the stand this passed weekend and it turned out pretty nice so far.

Do you think i need to add more legs or should the 4 be strong enough?

I planning on resealing it either this weekend or next i bought some glass to help strengthen the bottom seals its going to have a euro brace on the side bottom of the tank but will be covered up by sand so u will never be able to tell. I still need to get silicone and some black paint for the back.
im still deciding which tank im going to uses as a sump/refugi i have a standard 55gal and a 40 breeder. Which would use recommend?
All feedback is welcome. Im still figuring out which skimmer, pump, powerheads and lights so let me know what you think.
