About this deal

Please note that water will gradually reduce the integrity of your stand or base and it’s, therefore, advisable to stay ahead of such damage just to be safe. Can You Put A Fish Tank on A Glass TV Stand Remember that glass can be brittle and break unexpectedly, particularly under continuous stress or pressure, so take extra care when placing the tank on the stand and avoid any sudden jolts or impacts.

Third, go for these methods only if you have a fish tank that weighs 10 to 20 gallons at maximum. Anything more than 10 gallons should be placed on custom TV stands with a high weight and pressure-bearing capacity. An aquarium is a beauty that adds glam to your house. You have many options regarding how and where you want to keep your fish tank to make it a part of your house’s aesthetics. Now that we’ve determined what a TV stand can hold, and alternative solutions for your 10-gallon display, another thing that is quite important to know is how much a traditional fish stand can hold, as this is what informs the size appropriate for your tank. Even though there are options such as keeping the fish tank right next to the TV stand or television unit, it often looks uneven in the room and hampers the overall appeal for some people.

The first thing that will determine how heavy or light your fish tank will be is the material it made from. Generally, glass tanks weigh almost as much as heavy acrylic setups. The dimensions of the TV stand will be your deciding factor. You can call in a woodworking expert to make certain arrangements to move the aquarium in & out easily. Apart from that, if the wooden material of an aquarium stand has not undergone water damage treatment, then constant exposure to moisture can deteriorate its durability as well. Interestingly, glass tanks are also more prone to breakages (a topic I’ve in more detail here) than acrylic aquariums. In general, if you have tanks of twenty gallons or less, then you can use a good solid piece of furniture such as your old TV stand. About this, be sure it is solid wood and not the fiberboards many modern cabinets are made.

Usually, aquarium weights vary depending on the material used to make the tank and the weight of equipment and decor place inside or on the tank. The area that overhangs is also better when less than more because it will create a tinier cantilever force on the stand. If the strain on the base is too much, try to reinforce it or build a new one. That said, if you decide to go for a coffee table fish stand, solid wood, not pressed or made of a board of any kind, would work best. Plus avoid oval or round tables for obvious reasons.It is important to determine how much weight your TV stand can withstand to carry the weight of both the aquarium and the TV. Unless you have a small aquarium, it is better not to rely on furniture you have to hold your aquarium. You can see the weights are through the roof when you add water and fish.

Well, now you might be wondering what you will do with the television unit if a fish tank is going to replace it. And speaking of fish tank stand, below are four (4) approaches ( according to the spruce pets) you can take depending on the size, shape, budget, and the aesthetics you want. It is here where many tank owners make a mistake. Rather than finding a large piece of furniture that is strong enough to hold a tank full of water. It can be the shape and the materials used in the construction of the stand, which dictates the tank you can ultimately end up with. So, make sure your tank is level and no portion of overhangs the stand. 3 Frequently Asked Questions

Fish Tank & Stand Combos

In my experience, 2 inches the short way is the maximum a fish tank can overhang a stand without too much strain, any more than that can be catastrophic. Plus this is only possible with small aquariums, bigger setups have a much slimmer margin of error. What Can You Use For A Fish Tank Stand You can argue that you don’t want to drill holes in your beautiful wall, which is why you got the TV stand. But, this method is only for people who can compromise on that aspect.

No furniture can hold a fish tank of more than 20 gallons. Well, there are coffee tables that are just meant to hold coffee mugs.

Now, you will have to get a new aquarium, which will fit into those dimensions easily. In this case, you might not get to choose the desired size of the aquarium you want to use.Before heading to the methods, the first and most important thing is to buy a TV stand with adjustable shelving spaces in the center of its construction. Secondly, they should be made of solid oak wood or even stronger material that can withstand a weight of around 200 pounds. The more, the better! Your coffee table needs to be standing on four legs and be waterproofed as well. As such steer clear of tables standing on a single leg then a spread-out foundation. To be sure, you have the right strength; a mixture of wood and metal is the best recommendation. Aluminum is lightweight and can fend off water better than stainless steel. The most significant downside is the size of the budget needed. Calculating Aquarium Weight Because of this, either you will need to reconsider your tank size, or you will require a purpose-built stand. Tank Accessibility
