Initial Stand Designing & Plan
After seeing some excellent steel fabricated stands on the Reefuge by daveH and somethingfishy76, I made the decision that my stand will be steel :)
Something that I did not consider was using levelling feet to ensure the tank is perfectly level:) thanks guys for the advice.
I will be using 6 of these:
I will be discussing my requirements for my stand with a contact I have been given by daveH :)
Dimensions not finalised - included for design reference.
Material dimensions not finalised - included for design reference.
Version # 1
Box frame
Version # 2
Box frame with legs raised 150mm
Both versions will have the same top:
I am leaning towards version 2 as it will allow a bulkhead to be installed on the bottom panel of the sump for water changes and draining of the sump.
Any feedback, advice or opinions on the 2 versions?
