Anyone know where i can get a 72x 20 blue styrofoam sheet? Home depot and lowes don't carry them in SOCAL . I'm trying to have it under my acrylic tank .B/C there is a tiny gap between bottom of the tank and top of the stand. Blue styrofoam have more intensity i think?!

I used panel foam, from Lowe's (3/4" x 13 5/8" x 48") and just cut it to the size I needed. Maybe they carry that? I have a 500 gallon tank on top of it and very little sound of it compressing when filling/filled so it seems rigid enough to hold but compressed to even out.
Lowes carries blue... Home Depot carries pink... it's the same stuff just a different brand... both sell them in 4' x 8' sheets...
It might be worth calling around and seeing if the store carries it though...
Although one of the benefits of acrylic is that they are less rigid than glass, therefore a tiny bit of flexing shouldn't be an issue... that said, I don't blame you for wanting the styrofoam for comfort...

Because acrylic is less ridig than glass and has the ability to flex a little... But like I said, I still don't blame you for wanting some cushion in the gap...
