I have been building this stand for my 24" * 12" * 12" aquarium. It is constructed from 1 1/2" * 2 1/2" "studding" timber for the 4 uprights. These are screwed to 2 frames, top and bottom, made from 2 3/4" * 3/4" timber. Once secured, 8 upright pieces made from the same timber as the frames, are screwed to the uprights to fill between the top and bottom frames.
I will clad the stand with 3/8" plywood, leaving a gap top and bottom at the rear for electrical and tank connections. Also I will create a door at the front to allow access to the equipment.
The stand is 23" wide, 11" deep, 35 1/2" tall. once clad, the dimensions will be the same as the footprint of the tank.
This stand design is by Joey, The DIY Fishkeeper, whose Video instructions can be found on his YouTube Channel....
