DIY stand plans?
Anyone have solid plans for a 55G tank? I need it to be able to house a wet/dry filter underneath.

Here's the plans I used for the framing.
Reef Central Online Community - DIY Stands Template and Calculator
Then I just covered it with 1/4 plywood.
I know a few others on this forum used the same plan.
It's simple but effective.

Thanks!
xD I'd just rather build one than buy a 150 dollar one at the store.

Yeah much cheaper.
And better.
I used oak for the doors, trim, and plywood so it cost me around $200, but if you want to paint yours.. Probably could build it for 75 or less.
Don't forget pics.. !

75 sounds much better. Plus if I build it i know it won't collapse
