Reinforcing a tank stand?

Pat use 1or1.5"x3/16or1/4" flatbar and make your own stiffeners. Drill some holes in your stand and the flatbar then bolt them with 1/4 in bolts. If you braced the top 4 corners(8 braces) I don't think that stand will go anywhere. Just do one corner at a time if your worried about the stand buckling.

As long as your supplying the beer I'm in! Glad to hear the frags are doing good, I hope those blue ones continue to color up the way they have been. They just might turn out to be the best mystery frag yet.
