The simplest tank with a height of 23.5 inches needs around 16 5/8' of lumber. So you really cannot make one with 10' of lumber. To make it easier you could make it 21'' high and would take exactly 16 feet of lumber(I would take about 1/2 off the height to accommodate for the width of the saw blade).
make a box with the 2x6 standing up.
2'x1'
it will only be 6"tall,but its a stand.
then cut 2-2' pieces to nail/screw on the top
i always put styrofoam under my tanks for warped wood.
folded towels also works.
oh and thats 10'

i was thinking cut two 10 inch pieces and two 24 inch pieces and then making a box type set up. i for got to mention i have a 20x40 or so piece of mdf.
so with this design i have a 5.5 inch tall set up that i can later use to lift the tank up when i put it on a 7 foot stand for my 90 gallon tank
