Hehe, that was kind of exciting, to see that someone else had the same stand plan and made a nice color coded diagram.

While apparently not necessary, the center vertical supports gave me something to attach my thin bookmatched veneer plywood to. The 3/4" stuff had horrible rotary cut veneer, in addition to being twice as expensive and 3X heavier.

My stand is still obnoxiously heavy, but probably no more than the aquarium itself (empty of course, lol).
