Looking for stand for 65g

[paulhines]

I've been given a 65g (36x18) tank by my neighbor, but the oak stand is trash. Bottom shelf fell out and base all swollen with salt. Probably a slow leak in plumbing over many months/years.

Anyways, I need a cheap sturdy stand for this tank. It's going in a back bedroom, so it doesn't need to be too nice. Does anyone have an old one lying around thry're looking to get rid of?

Try building one, its really easy plus you can custom make it to fit your needs, I made one for my 180 and in the process of building one for a 58 which I believe is the same size you need, but mine turn out fancy, but if you click my little red house ya can my 180 and the 58 will look just like the 180 stand and canopy, but once its done im selling it because I have my hands full already with my 180!!! Maybe this can help ya alittle, if you have questions just ask away

Mike,

Yeah, but some of us need to sleep and cannot always find time to turn out beautiful stands. (-:

The pictures of the 180 are awesome. Glad it is going well.

Cheers,
Chris

LOL Thanks Chris, sleep?? who needs sleep!!! I cant wait till the time comes that I build bigger the next stand and canopy is going to be much nicer!!! That might happen in a couple of years, but im planning already!! Thanks again,

Mike

You're right... "who needs sleep"? You should stay up ans build stands for a living. That's beautiful.

I've thought about it... thanks for the reply.

Thanks Paul, I wish I could do it for a living, not sure if theres a market for them at the final price of it. By the time all the wood, hardware , stain etc. is purchased it would be a pretty expensive stand and canopy!! But thanks again Paul

I Got a stand and canopy that will fit it is in good shape for you but you would have to buy my 65 gallon pre-drilled tank with the plumbing for $225. I know you want just the stand and canopy but I can not sell just those two.

Let me know if your interested

Paulhines, if this works out I can buy the tank and you can by the stand and canopy.

It is drilled and already has all the attatchments to it. No scratches
