It is extremely undesirable to install a large aquarium on a regular table, since this piece of furniture is not designed for such a load. In addition, the surface itself should be fairly even.
Of course, you can buy a cabinet of the right size for the aquarium in the store. However, their cost is sometimes unreasonably high, and the quality of execution leaves much to be desired.
Therefore, if you have the necessary tools and free time, you can make a metal stand for the aquarium from the corner and profile.
First of all, you need to measure the width and length of the aquarium. Then, based on the dimensions obtained, it will be necessary to cut off four corners and weld a rectangular frame from them. An aquarium will be installed on it.
The main stages of work
Then you need to weld a second frame, which will be located at the bottom of the stand. And for this, the master is no longer using a corner, but a profile pipe 40 * 20 mm. And to the first frame for additional rigidity it is necessary to weld a strip of strip in the middle.
The legs of the metal stand for the aquarium are also made of profile 40 * 20 mm. And at the end of each pipe, plugs must be welded. In this case, the master cut them out of a sheet of metal.
At the last stage of the work, it remains only to weld the legs to the upper and lower frames, and also make two shelves (wooden and metal).
