I definitely agree with both of the above posts. Yeah, you could comfortably rest an Abram's tank on the stand. That tank is located in my office reception room. When the building was constructed just over a year ago, we planned for a peninsula tank and equipment room in the waiting room. Since we're on the 4th floor a leak of 450g could be bad news for the tenants below, so we wanted the stand to be absolutely 100% level. The builders made the stand for us with the caveat that they would be responsible for any variance from level, and I guess they didn't want any room for error. The only problems with it are that it made plumbing below the tank difficult, and there's not much room between the stand and the sump to work.

My A.G.E. steel stand for my home tank is much more reasonable, I think.
