    Tank stand okay?

    Hey guys, I’m new to reef tank keeping and am starting up a 75 gallon. When I was cutting out a place in my stand for the bulkheads, I might’ve taken out a little too much… is this okay to put water in the tank with the stand like this? The broken part is just the plywood on top of the main...

    Nuvo 10 Stand - An Ikea Besta reinforcement solution

    I recently realized I had only been lurking and had made no posts, so I want to share with you my stand and how it was reinforced.
