This is just a homemade stand that my brother in law and I put together. I was wanting a nice sturdy stand that would hold my second 20 and 10 gallon tanks, that were complete and just sitting in the corner begging for setup. I paid about $40 at Lowes in lumber, screws, and Liquid Nails, that I didnt use, cause it came clear this thing is not coming apart as is... I have a ton of that plywood left for when this stuff gets wet and ruined, even though it would suck to have to drain the tanks that far... lol. It also has bracing for my 14 gallon tank if I ever chose to stick that on the bottom shelf, and tons of clearance on top, with that 14 in mind. The 10 gallon is my plant tank and has tons of those little snails and 1 ghost shirmp so far, but we have about 5 egg carring shrimp in my 14, its sure to increase. Came out well for me since I dont build, Im better at mending and destroying... I have more pics and if anyone wants the dementions I used, feel free to msg me, and I would be happy to share the plans.

It is way over buit, but that is the way I wanted it. I wanted to make sure there was no way that anything can happen to my tanks. I am hoping at some point I can stain it or do more finish work on it, but first, I have to build another identical one to this for my other 20/14 Gallons. As a side note, my dogs and cats love the lower tank. I have that as my planted tank with a snail and ghost shrimp and both the cats and dogs will sit or lay in front of it and watch the shrimp swim around. I cant wait to get my tropical 14 gallon where they can see it... lol. Thanks so much for the kind words and more pics and probably tanks and stands to come... lol. Jon
