pics of floor support for the 180

[dodgefreak8]

well I finally got my floor supported for my new 180g tank.. I used
6 pavers (12"x12") $9.00
1 4"x4"x8' $10.00
3 jackposts $42.00
2 2"x4"x8' $15.00

knowing that you won't throw $1400.00 and your floor down the toilet=priceless

Nice support structure. Is that undisturbed soil under the pavers or did you pour a footing with concrete?
