So I decided two weeks ago that my sump a 20g Long was to small for my set up and decided to go bigger. So I shopped around for tanks, finding a 30g Breeder tank, 12in high, 36in long and 18 in wide. Figured that would be great shallow enough for skimmer but large enough for more fuge area.
So I measured my stand, front opening, 38inches depth of stand 18inches so it fits in and is tight. Go to my LFS order the tank, it finally comes in. Bring it home look at the tank and realize the tank specs did not include the black rim which adds another 1in:frustrat:
So now it does not fit...... So after looking at my tank swearing I see a solution.:^:
Here it is, the only thing stopping me from putting in my stand is the rear support.
1 I am gonna remove the support.
2 Add two 2inx2inx4in spacers top and bottum of support
3 Add thicker bolts through the support, spacer into the stand
4 I just gave myself 2in
Does these seem feasable?
