No, it's not upside down. 😀 The extra brace supports on the bottom are for the flooring and are intentionally more shallow to allow the floor to be added and have the edges recessed beneath the outside braces (if that makes sense). This is what it looks like with the flooring. It's 360 gallons. 8' X 3' 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That tank is huge btw and also beautiful 😍 I will probably do the same when I get into a 150+ volume tank. It gives alot of options to use magnets for doors and panels which is very convenient.

Usually nanos are convenient enough to just put on a dresser,nightstand,counter..I've also put them on free floating shelfs I've built. Just have to make sure it secured to a stud and not dry wall.i had my 7-10gallon on a free float shelf. Show us a picture of the nano.i have them on the double stack shelf now but getting ready to empty into my newer 55 build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyInside Posted July 20, 2021 Author Share Posted July 20, 2021 (edited) It’s a fiji cube 20 peninsula. Like 24x15x13 problem is I want it to go in this corner, which means the stand needs to get approved by the SO 😂. Area circled in red. Only picture I could find of the spot 1 hour ago, islandVib3s said: Which and what size nano is it?
