Imagitarium First Impressions

"Easy to put together."

It fits my 20 gallon tank perfectly. My wife was always mad about the aquarium supplies, bottled water, food, etc. I must have a better UPS driver than most. Great compliment for the Fluval Flex 15 aquarium. You do have complete access on the sides as the panel is only on the front. The only thing I would be cautious of ordering this is the dimensions of the stand. The end result looks so nice and feels sturdy.

2. Seachem Zeolite Marine & Freshwater Binding Agent - Ammonia and Heavy Metals 2 L

User Ratings: 68

Seachem 1275 First Impressions

"Really nice stand."

I can't say enough good things about this product. I did add wood glue when assembling it. Holds my 10 gal fish tank with no worries. Just make sure to measure your tank before ordering. Check out my how to video on my YouTube channel electric blue aquariums. There is even enough room inside the cabinet for a 5. Looks like it should last for a long time.

• Seachem Zeolite Marine & Freshwater Binding Agent - Ammonia and Heavy Metals 2 L
• BINDER: Seachem Zeolite is a naturally occurring, highly-porous mineral that binds ammonia and heavy metals through an ion exchange mechanism.
• REMOVER: Seachem Zeolite works in marine and freshwater to remove harmful metal ions such as lead, copper, nickel, and zinc without depleting calcium in saltwater nor increase general hardness in freshwater where the ionic strength is low.
• DIRECTIONS: Use 250 mL (1 cup) of Seachem Zeolite for every 200 L (50 US gallons). For smaller aquariums, the equivalent dose is 5 mL (1 level teaspoon) per 4 L (1 US gallon). This amount of Seachem Zeolite will remove up to 0.5 mg/L ammonia. Ammonia levels should then drop to zero within 24-48 hours. At this point, the zeolite can be removed or replaced with Active Carbon.
• FOR BEST RESULTS: Seachem Zeolite should be rinsed before use and placed so as to maximize the flow of water through it, but not so that it tumbles against itself in flow. Zeolite may be used in a canister filter, media chamber, box filter, or any high flow area of a trickle filter. Use of a filter bag is also recommended.
• SAFETY: Be sure to wash thoroughly after handling Seachem Zeolite and store this product in its original container in a cool, dry area away from food or incompatible materials.
• Manufacture: Seachem Laboratories

3. Innovative Marine 30L Fusion High Gloss Stand

Innovative Marine First Impressions

"This stand looks nice."

I put felt pads on the legs to make sure they don't scratch our hardwood floors. If you have an aquarium of a different design, it may not fit. I was wary of particle board stands but this is a great value and is very sturdy. It fits my 20 gallon tank perfectly. The only thing I would be cautious of ordering this is the dimensions of the stand. This is perfect for my 10 gallon tank on top and will add my 5. I wanted to get a fish stand for my 20 gallon high aquarium.

4. Marineland Majesty Aquarium Wood Stand, 49.88" L X 14.38" W X 28" H, 49.88 in, Black

MarineLand First Impressions

"5 in the bottom."

I got a size up for a 29 gallon tank to have some room on the sides for fish food. Easy to put together, maybe 30 minutes. The back has large openings for filter tubes and power cords. My wife was always mad about the aquarium supplies, bottled water, food, etc. I don't know if the wood is water sealed. They then tell you to mount the door and THEN install the top hinge. Looks like it should last for a long time.

Coralife 100115664 First Impressions

"I love it."

I like the dual aquarium aspect of it so that I can have a 10 gallon aquarium below. It isn't the best to look at, but it was very cheap compared to the nice wood stands. I would highly recommend that one as well. Easy to out together and does its job- holding my Fluval Flex. Its more streamline with my furniture and I like it alot! It looks much more expensive and custom than it is. They then tell you to mount the door and THEN install the top hinge.

Imagitarium First Impressions

"Really heavy."

A lot of storage and our aquatic turtles love all that space from 20 to a 40 gallon. All in all this is a very good product for the money. This leaves just enough room for a little extra storage. The coating on the outside is great. Never have had concerns about it being strong enough or stable. I put felt pads on the legs to make sure they don't scratch our hardwood floors. Easy to put together, maybe 30 minutes.

"Looks great too."

I have a 55 gallon Marineland aquarium. All pieces to my unit were there and after reading reviews I was concerned. After looking at many different stand at local pet stores, I was very disappointed. Very sturdy- much better quality than I was expecting for the price. There was a knock at the door and a package arrived. If you have a lot of large things to store the shelves would not be an issue. Once properly assembled, the 32 gallon Bio-cube tank sits rock solid on the stand.

8. Black Acrylic Adjustable Frag Rack and Skimmer Stand

Generic First Impressions

"I have gone through two."

Check out my how to video on my YouTube channel electric blue aquariums. The reason that I gave 4 stars in stead of 5 is because of the wasted space. All of the stands I came across were either too flimsy or too expensive. Shipping was fine, but be aware that it is a somewhat heavy package before unpacked. The quality and rigidity of the stand seem to be above par. Great compliment for the Fluval Flex 15 aquarium. Holds my 10 gal fish tank with no worries.

9. Aquael Hexa Set 60 Cabinet

Aquael AE2192NET First Impressions

"I own two of these."

That took a lot of hand and my own weight and strength to get the screw in nicely. They came apart and extremely cumbersome. I like the dual aquarium aspect of it so that I can have a 10 gallon aquarium below. The finish absolutely will bubble if you get it wet. However, one gets use to working within the space provided. Otherwise it a very sturdy and easy to assemble stand. I don't know if the wood is water sealed.

Petoolife First Impressions

"Love the way it looks."

At first I didn't want to order a stand online. Not necessary to lay wood over the metal rim. After looking at many different stand at local pet stores, I was very disappointed. If you have an aquarium of a different design, it may not fit. Only negative is it scratches easily. This fit my 29 gallon tank perfectly. These parts have a semi gloss black finish and seem to restst any scratching.
