Searched but couldn't find anything but steel options for purchase, which can get a bit expensive. Anyone have a good wooden double 240 rack plan?
Thanks in advance.
Thanks in advance.
Double Stack 240 Gallon Rack (wood)
- Thread starter Black Tuna
- Start date
Assuming for a moment the tanks are say 2' tall and you want the bottom one a foot off the ground and a foot above the bottom tank, that puts the top of the top tank at roughly 6'....I would spend the extra money on steel, especially since the water alone will total 4,000 lbs. 2,000lbs of water plus tank and decor at eye level will require considerable strength and wood is going to need to be carefully considered. Standard 2x4 construction should be upgraded to 2x6 and back bracing designed in. 500 gallons on display will be awesome.
I love this guy....mostly because he is certifiable. .."next video, we are going to take the 540g apart...." hahahaha!!!
That stand is exactly what I had in mind for two 240g...good find Justin !!!!!!!!!!
Hey man I almost cried when he took his 540 apart. I was tempted to drive out to Nova Scotia and pick it up. He is certifiable he give me inspection to try anything I want when there is a will there is a way to do anything. There is not one of his videos that I have not watched some are better then others but all great ideas or starting points for any hobbiest to learn from
