Re: Stacking tanks

Most likely the tanks at the LFS are empty... And If that is the case lets just do some math..Water is 8 lbs. per gallon and the weight of your sand and/or live rock. You have to realize that only the sides of the 40 are supporting the weight. I fear that if you did this eventually the sides of your 40g tank will collapse, so I totally agree with 4Dr4g0n.

If you could build a stand that straddles the 40g with out actually touching it would be a better design as Phil has stated.

And I totally agree with Phil about showing no regard.
