Hey everyone. I want to get everyone's advice on whether this stand will work for my tank. The stand is for a basic 100 gallon plexi tank. It has a 1.5 inch lip on it in the front and the 2 sides. The back has no lip. I have a 168 gallon glass tank that measures 60 inches long, 27.5 inches high and 24 inches wide. I measured the stand at it is 18 inches wide. Do you think I can put the glass tank on it and still have it be safe. It will hang out about 6 inches in the back. I would use the stand that the 168 came with but one of the doors are a little warped and the plastic coating is coming off. I guess I can take off the plastic coating on the stand and use something like wall paper to cover the wood. Please let me know what you think. Thanks in advance, The Doctor
 
No, don't let your tank overhang a too-small stand. You may be able to modify it to hold the larger tank, but nobody can tell you for certain without pics.
