I'm brainstorming what sorts of surfaces I could use as a stand for a 20 long tank. I'm not seeing any existing stands that I really like in that size. I weigh almost as much as a filled 20g. tank, so I'm assuming anything that could support my weight would be doable...perhaps avoiding particle board or other surfaces that could become greatly compromised if wet.

Any BTDTs or advice?

Got any unfinished furniture places nearby ? The ones around me sell stuff made of pine and maybe poplar which appear a lot more sturdy than the pressboard rubbish Pet**** sells . But you've gotta stain/varnish it yourself . Just a passing thought ….
