    Dear all

    I hope you can advise me where to get a suitable stand for this cube tank (45cm x 45cm x 45cm). I am using an IKEA square table right now which i think wont be bale to hold that weight. Thank you.

    eh, those IKEA table are not meant to be loaded so much!

    If I were you, I'll quickly move this tank onto another more stable stand.. your cube tank at full capacity is heavier (91l = 91kg!) than a standard 2ft x 1ft tank! (81l).

    45cm cube tanks are not very common, you'll probably need to buy it from the Merchants listed online (bro Leslie aka "Acezz" may have) or go DIY.

    is the cabinet made from compressed wood? that wood is not waterproof, it will expand and disintegrate.

    Thank you for the prompt advices. I have been searching for a right size at most lfs but none have any. Yes, I get worried looking at the table everytime.

    I have seen a stand from GEX for 45cm tanks being sold at C328, but I am not sure of the side dimensions of that stand. You should consider ordering a customised stand from one of the tank makers in this forum.

    Hi stormhawk, thank you for your kind advice. Went to C238 and one of the uncles told me they have none. I saw a Boyu cabinet at one LFS which has a dimension to fit the 45x 45 base. I wonder if the make is strong enough but the fella was not sure. His assurance was should be ok.
