so I decided that instead of making the stand built for my 36"x12" that I would design one for a 48"x13".
2 reasons for this.
I would like to eventually upgrade down the road to a tank that is at least 48" in width (so I can actually get one tang!).
Also because I like the size of a 55g, and that would fit perfect on a 48" long stand. It saves me from building a awesome 36" stand, then having to rebuild another one down the road. Also for the area its going in, a 48" would fit perfect as well.
I guess the only thing is that I need to reinforce it much better, since the 36" won't be sitting on all the edges.
My question is, does anyone here have a 55g tank that is 48x13? I believe all-glass makes one. I'm just wondering what the EXACT dimensions are for the bottom of the tank, where the plastic mold is.
