Here's the build of my tank and steel stand.
96" x 30" wide x 32" tall. I think just one more section of the steel stand would do for yours. ( Note, I am not a professional steel tank stand designer, and anything I say should be taken with a grain of salt ) http://www.reefcentral.com/forums/sh....php?t=2201396 Note: if you think my design might not be enough, you could always go the next size larger with the steel. |

That's a pretty huuuuge size tank you got and didn't think through on stand?! Anyways my tank is 96x30x30 and I build mine out of 2x6's and 2x4's 3 years ago and I dont have any experience in wood work. All I'm saying it's not s scary of a diy project.
Look on Google for ideas on how to build one |
