Looks fantastic-------and about the advice part- lets say you were building one for a 265g regular and the measurements were 7'Lx24''Dx30''H would the basic design part of this stand by ok to hold a tank that size or would you modify it with more bracing. Maybe like instead of the 2 middle ones make it 3 to 5 braces. Or would you also up the frame to say 2x6's or 8's ---thanks alot-------------ok I new i was not done asking for advice.----Also when building a large stand would you follow basic carpentry rules and square everything and then level it to the floor it would set on or would you level it to the floor it will live on during assembly/building. <-------That is one I have allways wondered about.
