Alright, so it's staying home with me. I am planning on putting it in the same room as the FW tank, but it looks like the IM stands are no longer available. The page doesn't exist on IMs site, and they seem to be out of stock everywhere else.

It would fit perfectly in this corner (where the green cabinet currently is). I have up to 24" of room, so this is a great spot. Now I need to find a piece of furniture.

I can not seem to find anything that will fit. I can get up to 48l x 24w. It seems that everything that fits length wise is just under 15 in wide. Other ideas? I was still thinking about some metal shelving from 8020.net.

We like shopping at American Furniture Warehouse if there's one close by you. Quite the selection.

So I think I'm just going to go the 2x4 route. I think I should be able to use just regular 2x4s, make a box for the top and bottom and have it supported what the heck 2x4s in between. Plywood skin. Around 36" high, so 51" with tank?

Thoughts?

Was doing trim work on the house and already had the saw out today. Luckily I had enough scraps to cut for a wood stand. Just need to cut the plywood for top and bottom.
