Oceanic Tank on AGA stand?

[Village Idiot]

I may finally be getting my tank -- an Oceanic RR 90 gallon. The seller does not have a stand. My question is do I have to buy an Oceanic stand to go with it, or will an AGA stand do? DIY is out of the question, as my carpentry skills are not up to my wife's expectation of what her house should look like.

I know they are the same company, but I want to make sure the less exspensive AGA stand will fit the Oceanic tank properly and that the plumbing will line up.

Thanks

A stand is a stand. FWIW, I have an Oceanic tank on an AGA stand with a DIY canopy; and all of it is customized the way I want it. Look here: http://reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&postid=7900036#post7900036

first i would make sure that this aga stand is not made out of press board. if you get those wet by water changes cleaning the tank ect... it will fall apart on you. second (stupid question here) but is this aga stand for 90g or more tanks? i would hate for you get the tank, set it up and all and then the tank comes crashing down. the best advice i can give you is i would call aga and ask them will this stand support your 90g oceanic tank.

FWIW, All Glass Aquarium stands are built to hold all standard size tanks with that footprint. Thus, a stand that holds something that is 48" long x 18" wide will hold a 75g or a 90g.

BTW, thanks Will. It's a work in progress, and I can't wait to get it set up.
