I have a 270 gallon tank with a built in overflow that is centered in the back.

Any suggestions on how to safely build a stand for that? I'm thinking it would need to be modular or something.

Okay, what if I want my sump viewable?

You know these posts don't have a character limit right?

How about telling us the dimensions of the tank, the number of drains it has, how big the drains are, how far in from the edge they are, what you're thinking of building the stand from, how tall you want it, how big your sump is, and any other info that someone might need to know when they're design something for you, like the fact you want the sump to be viewed.

The answer you get is only as good as the question you ask.
 
Tank is 72.5"x36.5"x25" outside dims, the tanks has 6 returns the back glass, and two outputs in the rear center of the bottom glass, roughly 1" from the back glass of the tank. The bottom drains have 2" bulkheads installed, while the back returns consist of two 1.5" returns, and four 2" returns. My sump is 48.5" x 36"x 16" outside dimensions. Ideally my stand would be 28" tall with the sump centered
