How heavy is a 20G L?

[Ben K]

Basically, thinking of getting a stand built for myself. Was wondering how heavy a 20G L tank would be.

Also, why I am at it, does anyone know of any DIY tank stand designs that I could get for such a tank, if I chose to build out of wood. Right now I am looking at steel.

About 200 pounds with substrate and decorations.

Water weighs 8.34 pounds per gallon. Rich has a good estimate there.

I would poke around the DIY section...there is a lot of good stuff but I'm not sure if there's exactly what you are looking for

Wood stands are very easy to build and very inexpensive when building. You can purchase or make a steel stand but IMO the wood looks better. As suggested the DIY section will offer you many options and choices.
