Tank of of the month, May '02

[seven ephors]

hi.
Regarding the stand, is there a link available about the construction in greater details?

Currently for a 4' X 8' stand I am making, I use 6 legs 4 feet apart around the perimeter. Each foot is about 4"X4" in dimension. I use four 8' X 4" X 2" and five 4'X4"X2 stud for hortizonal support, and one 3/4" plywood on top of them to hold the tank. Each leg is about 30 inch tall. I just want to make sure it is suitable. Thanx.

My setup consists of 6' x 4' with 4x4 at each corner and in the middle along the front and back edge (6'), one inch plywood on the bottom which is 4 inches off the floor and two onc inch plywood layers on the top, with 2x6 supports 16 inch on center. I also used 1/2 inch insulation board under tank. I hope this makes sense.
