It a MarineLand stand correct? Just make sure you put the brace back in solid & you will be good to go.

Yes Grizz, it is a Marineland stand. The new stand is not here yet, but it will arrive in a week or so. I am ready to do it and will follow your instructions.

would removing the center brace make it too weak in the middle to hold the heavy tank?
