I used this exact model and I love it. Sometimes I worry it can’t bare the weight, but so far so good. Super grateful for all the money this saved me!

Late to the party and not sure if you monitor this page anymore. But planning on this exact build. Thank you for all the info. Question: Did you ever find the tank to low for viewing? I am debating adding (6x) 3 7/8" legs under to raise it up a bit more.

Hi, any issue handling the weight of the tank over the years?

How has this stand stood up since you built this?

Looks good man. Did you choose the 25 Peninsula or the 20 regular box just for looks ? I’m debating on getting the square 20 one or the peninsula 25. Maybe just preference .. and the peninsula is a little bigger ..

IKEA says only a 50lb weight capacity how well do you say it holds the peninsula 25? Thanks

You said it, Dude! As for the allowable weight for the base cabinet, I would be extremely suspicious. Especially because - it's from Ikea.🙄 With self-build base cabinets I would always rely on aluminum profiles and clad the outside with plates from the screen printing. That holds and there is also not softened.

He reinforced it with some metal brackets. Other people on youtube have bought the same cabinet and basically constructed a wooden frame inside. Obviously takes up more space, but that's the route I would go. After that the main concern is if the veneer of the shelf top was compromised and water seeped into the particle board. It would certainly collapse in that case as wet particle board basically turns to mush.
