Benjamin Posted February 17 Report Posted February 17 Hello had anyone used something similar for their tank? If so have you done anything to reinforce the sideboard. Thanks in advance. Quote
fcschoenthal Posted February 17 Report Posted February 17 First, welcome to the forum. I've never tried to (re-)use a piece of furniture as an aquarium stand. I would have concerns that something marketed as a sideboard could hold 486 lbs (220 kg). As to reinforcing it, it would depend on the existing structure. I've built several from scratch, but never modified one. 2 Quote
wtnhighlander Posted February 18 Report Posted February 18 I would be leery of a typical commercially-made sideboard holding that much weight. I think that by the time it was suitably re-inforced, a new one could be built. 460lb / 220kg doesn't sound like all that much, but do you want to risk dumping a full bathtub of water onto your living room floor if it fails? 1 Quote
