Need Help! Stand that can hold two 55 gallons

[Young Piranha]

Well, the title pretty much says it all. I am not very good at making designs but I can do the woodwork. Does anyone have plans or some instructions on how to make 1 stand that can hold two 55 gallon tanks?

I would like one tank on top and one on the bottom?

Feel free to draw up some plans :]

just use your imagination, and come back. we will tell you if it should support the weight or not

Hmm that double tank stand looks good. Does everyone think it would be strong enough?

It would be more than strong enough. I have built a few of these. Although I like the bottom to be a bit higher, they work well.

Hm, how might I go about making the bottom tank higher? I do want the bottom tank elevated some, but I will need space to siphon and get my hands in there if I need to net anything out.
