You are not likely to find many sets of "plans" for bow front tanks. However, really you should try using a search engine like Google.

Also, if there is warranty on the tank, you need to use the factory stand if you want the warranty to be any good.

I built my own tank recently using aluminium tslots. Strong as hell, modular, customisable and cheap too! http://www.tslots.com you'll need two custom curved frames for the front but the rest of the frame can use off the shelf. I liked my aquarium frame so much I made a separate desk and shelving system for my study with the same stuff.

Im very interested, are they reasonable in price? I cant open the link on my phone and im away on leave so I wont be by a computer to research them.

Hello. I have built a few stands and I went off of this design:

Additionally, I have actually made a stand for my acrylic 56g bowfront tank and made a journal on it. I hope it isn't against the rules to link over to another thread as that is the only place where I have this journal at:
http://forum.simplydiscus.com/showt...ahone-s-Simple-Bowfront-Discus-Tank-(Journal)

I hope that helps you.
