Hello!
We've been reading along for a month or so. We are starting to gather our tank and have been looking into stands.
The stands for a 55gal tank seem to be a bit expensive - like any good shopper - we were looking up alternatives.
Although we would love to build one, it is winter in NYC and that isn't an option right now.
Next guess was Home Depot for a wire or metal rack made for a garage or kitchen and such... heavy duty etc.
600lbs is quite a weight load, and I do not want that water all over my living room, eep.
I called my LFS and they said NO WAY, the tank will be too heavy.
But they also say it isn't as complicated as I'm reading here...which...well...I don't want to say they're wrong, I don't do this for a living, but um, it seems a little more tricky then how they're wanting to set me up.
Are they trying to make another buck on me?
