Aquarium Advice Freak
Well...after being gone for about 2 weeks, I've decided to take up the hobby again...I should had just kept it up instead of quitting and then starting up again (lost 4 fishes, 2 shrimps and 10 hermits to the LFS, not to mention tons of organisms on my now dead rock).
Well anyways, I was wondering if stands are able to hold water and withstand an earthquake? I'm extremely paranoid about earthquakes and its possible damages. I now have a 50 Gallon Sea Clean Acrylic tank that is standing on a stand that is relatively cheap (100 bucks). Could the price of the stand mean that the stand itself is poorly built? Well not poorly built but built to only hold what it should (a tank) vs a 300 dollar stand. I would assume those expensive stands are able to hold under an earthquake while my stand might just collapse. I'm young and don't know better so i get paraniod about EVERYTHING!
Thanks in advance.
