![]() So now I have decided to just use my 30 gallon as the show tank. Frame is almost complete!
![]() The 10 gallon will actually be on the upper shelf, and I'm thinking maybe two 5 gallons on the bottom for frags and a hospital tank. ![]() |

![]() No offence, but it looks crooked and unlevel?? Hope its just the camera playing tricks. Leeds to be perfectly level or the tank may crack.

![]() the way you have your uprights positioned right now im afraid they will go though the bottom of the tank. all the weight is going to be on the outside horizontals, and they are only held up by screws right now it looks like. or perhaps you are not done yet.
just my $0.02

If you were to sit yourself in the middle of that frame...ask yourself what is holding you up? I think you will determine that it is the nails/screws that you attached the frame to the posts. That's not good. Similarly, the forces come down the legs and concentrate at the bottom of the legs. The bottom frame is not functioning to distribute the load as you would like. The frames should sit on top of...and underneath the legs...not around them.
