Between marks is usually good - depends on the level. How far off level is it over 1 foot?
I'd like to build a stand for a 300g DD Marineland (72x36). Is the design in the first page ok or should I put more supports ("œlegs") in the middle?
Should I use 2x6 or 2x8? Or a combination?
Thanks
As per the first page, the top frame should be 2X8 and the rest 2X4. You don't need a center support.

jt,
That contradict what I was told about 4 foot tanks (different manufacturer maybe). Was that statement for large tanks or all tanks?
Is this ok? this would give about 1/2" extra all around.thanks for the reply. Also should the top frame be the exact same dimensions as the bottom of the tank? I was thinking in making it 1" bigger all around (73x37 for a tank 72x36) to be safe.
