You are right! I get more confident with each build I do.

Subed, some cool stuff on your channel man, can't wait for you to get back! GL on your deployment

You did a good job on that stand! I have average construction skills as well but I'm too nervous to build one..

Thanks, I really appreciate it!

Looks good. I made a stand similar at exactly 35” height as well. You should add an extra 2x4 in the center/rear for added support.

That would probably be good, but then how could he get the sump in the stand? I guess lower it from the top? But then he would never be able to get it out while the display tank is there.

@@letskate11 Actually, it's not that hard. Place the sump in there first and then add the extra support with a just a few screws, so that you can easily remove that stud again whenever needed. Usually when you place a big sump in there, it's there to stay for a very long time and usually only gets removed when selling the thing, or when it needs a reseal or if you want to replace the sump with an upgraded one. Emptying it, changing/cleaning/adding the media and so on can simply be done at the front. Cheers.

Nice video. You build some lovely aquarium stands. I've subscribed to your channel :)

Good Job and thanks for share -

Awesome. Each vertical 2x4 should be able to hold 1,000 lbs before failing so in essence that stand could hold about 8,000 lbs.

Nice thanks for sharing

I am with you on the store bought stands. They're not much good for anything unless you need some kindling, I like the design of your stand. I need to build another one for my 75, I just got new lights and I need to figure out away to suspend them above my tank without having a canopy. I would like to see the bottom of your stand underneath the plywood, mainly as a guide to see how to figure out the bracing, so I can maybe figure out how to attach a way to include a rail to run the lights on. I want to extend my lights 18 inches above the tank ,so I can protect the lights from salt creep, as they where near a $1000. for the lights.

Wow, that's the exact stand I was looking to buy and it sketched me out, $236. Guess my feelings were right, considering doing a DIY .

Great job. I’ll be copying yours. Ty

What are the measurements and total cost for this tank

I did my own stand as well watching the you tube videos I am a woman with construction skills hey everyone its easy just measure twice cut once you can do it. I have to put my sides on , top and doors and then stain it and hope to do all that after work each night and have it set up next weekend. we got all our 2x4's from house construction sites the wood they throw away nothing wrong with it, just have to pull a few nails out and sand down. i am so happy with it. compared to the ones you buy there just not the good sturdy quality. GOOD LUCK Y'all you can do it.

Nicely made. What is the height of this stand?

What was the total cost for this build?

how much did you buy the 75 for?

Hey whats up I recently got a 75 at petco with their 50% off deals .The stand looks great and sturdy.I plan to do build one also.If I copied yours what are the exact measurements I need /pieces of 2×4's?

hey man can u tell me what king of wood did u use thank you

Hello I am looking to build a stand like this for my 90 gallon, I was wanting the stand to be about 58 inches long instead of 48. Do you have any advice on this?

what kind of 2x4 di d u used thank you

So where’s the update on this?

If I built this 75 gal stand, you think it's ok if I put 55 gal tank on this stand for temporary ? I do this until I get the 75 gal Tank.

Hey bro! Is it ok not to put a center support at the back? Nice vid btw!

The tensile strength of a 2x4 is something ridiculous like 900lbs. Just Google 2x4 tensile strength and do independent research. If you are uncomfortable just add a brace. This tank has been up for over a year with no issues. :)
