1. Clear Acrylic Adjustable Frag Rack and Skimmer Stand

Generic First Impressions

"Very well made."

Easy to put together, great price, and looks great with my set up. The final part of the assembly was the door. The back has large openings for filter tubes and power cords. I never had a proper aquarium stand before. As I proceeded to assemble the stand, I was pleasantly surprised! My only wish would be that the center door could be a little wider. It sounds a bit odd, but it's actually very sturdy once assembled.

Generic Final Thoughts

"Very easy to assemble."

The backside is wood, not cardboard, and makes the stand very sturdy. That took a lot of hand and my own weight and strength to get the screw in nicely. Beware if you find the top on line. Fits my 32 gallon bio cube perfectly. If you have an aquarium of a different design, it may not fit. The 29 gallon stand was easy to assemble but it should be done with two people. For the money, I like this product.

2. 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.

"Excellent product."

The coating on the outside is great. I did not install the hanging panel. The assembly took me about an hour with some distractions. The bottom is a little curve, I cut a yoga mat to even out the little curve. The black matches the black plastic trim on our 10 gal tank almost perfectly. All in all this is a very good product for the money. This fit my 29 gallon tank perfectly.

"This stand looks nice."

As I proceeded to assemble the stand, I was pleasantly surprised! It feels really sturdy and excellent quality. Dude, you can have all ur friends stand on this and it won't collapse. My wife was always mad about the aquarium supplies, bottled water, food, etc. I laid on top of it to test its sturdiness and it was solid. I bought this for my 29 gallon tank. Very sturdy- much better quality than I was expecting for the price.

"This is a HEAVY piece."

Hopefully the above can save someone else a bit of aggravation. I also have the version that fits my 75 gallon tank. Never have had concerns about it being strong enough or stable. Considering the price I'll probably go with Aquatic Fundamentals again in the future. Its more streamline with my furniture and I like it alot! I got a size up for a 29 gallon tank to have some room on the sides for fish food. The bottom shelf has no pegs and can accommodate another small tank or supplies.

"Great product!"

The final part of the assembly was the door. Easy to assemble except for the screws! They came apart and extremely cumbersome. I don't know if the wood is water sealed. It has a lot of space in the cabinet and the doors stay shut very well. However, one gets use to working within the space provided. That took a lot of hand and my own weight and strength to get the screw in nicely.

"It is metal."

Check out my how to video on my YouTube channel electric blue aquariums. This is even more gorgeous in person. Once that was done, the rest of the assembly was easy. Directions were easy to follow, no missing pieces. I was expecting something flimsy and cheap at this price but NOT AT ALL. The only issue I have, though, is the doors. Best part, didn't have to buy a tank and a table separate.

6. 4 Size 4Pcs Stainless Steel Aquarium Fish Tank Glass Cover Support, Stainless Steel Fish Tank Cover ...

Hffheer First Impressions

"Perfect for a 29 gallon."

I bought this for my 29 gallon tank. The legs clip into the top frame, and the bottom shelf forces the legs apart. Not necessary to lay wood over the metal rim. I almost built one out of wood to save money yet still have quality but I found this. That took a lot of hand and my own weight and strength to get the screw in nicely. But it was still in good shape, just a few mild scratches. This is a great cabinet with quality water resistant coated wood.

"Pretty Happy."

Best part, didn't have to buy a tank and a table separate. It was kinda a pain to put together but other then that it is awesome! The only thing I would be cautious of ordering this is the dimensions of the stand. The shelving Is a plus, but I feel it is overpriced. It looks much more expensive and custom than it is. At first I didn't want to order a stand online. I cannot say enough good about this stand!

"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.

"I love the finish!"

You do have complete access on the sides as the panel is only on the front. Maybe I will get a nicer one some day, but this looks fine in the living room too. I used to have the same one same size, but black mode about 2 years ago. They then tell you to mount the door and THEN install the top hinge. The assembly took me about an hour with some distractions. The assembly took me about an hour with some distractions. Fits my 32 gallon bio cube perfectly.

I even had a couple of extra screws. The holes on the areas your will be screwing in were tuff. Water on top doesn't seem to affect it. Considering the price I'll probably go with Aquatic Fundamentals again in the future. I cannot say enough good about this stand! I use this to support two parakeet cages. It took me 20 minutes to put together and it looks so good with my aquarium.

"Very nice look."

Seems very sturdy and looks nice with my 50 gallon aquarium. It looks much more expensive and custom than it is. Hopefully the above can save someone else a bit of aggravation. It isn't the best to look at, but it was very cheap compared to the nice wood stands. I am knocking a star for the construction of the frame being not quite square. Each part was labeled for easy step by step assemble. The final part of the assembly was the door.

"I also have a small apt."

Directions were easy to follow, no missing pieces. Very solid construction and durable. If not for the price I would give this 5 stars easily. Beware if you find the top on line. I was wary of particle board stands but this is a great value and is very sturdy. If you have a lot of large things to store the shelves would not be an issue. The only issue I have, though, is the doors.
