55 gallon metal stand at petsolutions = $60.00
55 gallons of saltwater, fish, coral, sand, rock on your floor - priceless!
Add to that Henry......the look on Mom and Dad's face as they are sitting in the living room (which is under yours) hear a loud bang...and then water starts coming thru the vents

What makes this worse...I don't know if you guys can tell in the pictures but his tank isn't actually sitting flat on the stand. In the first picture if you look closely you can see that the supports sit up a little bit higher than than the horizontal pieces of the frame. So essentially it's resting on 4 pressure points from what I can tell. I am rather curious to see how long it will hold like that. Infact, the more I look at that stand the more I wonder which will give first, the stand or the tank.

Update, sand is already in place as seen in the first pic. Im not a fan of thick sand.
Hi,
Why risk it? Why don't you at least try what I suggested? If you are too cheap or broke to afford a stand or a nice piece of flat pressed wood, you are in the wrong hobby.
If you read any information on saltwater aquariums you wouldn't say silly things like, you’re not a fan of thick sand. I suppose you think the sand is for looks. Oh and that tiny little rock...what's up with that?

Careful Flower.....too much more rock and the tank is doomed
actual Wayner.......are you going to add more rock???? That will up the collapse time IMO

The rock is the biological filtration to supplement the HOB filter, plus is adds ballast to offset the demise of the great crash of 2010.

Then don't even bother having sand in there ... have you done any research? Are you just here to piss in the wind and annoy all of us at the same time?

Hey Dude,
Not trying to be a jerky or anything, but I really hope your not putting sharks in that 55 gallon tank. your making a big mistake if you are. i find it strange how you initially talk about a mysterious 180 gallon tank. Then the entire thread changes to the real tank a 55 gal. Now, just because you had a 10 gallon fw tank does not mean u r ready for salt. trust me. I did my research before diving into SW and i still had major miscalcs. dude, just learn first(because it looks like you need to) then become a hobbyist.
