    Looks good. That looks like it was a real pain getting in there.

    photo 2 is how we supported it before we took of the center brace of the stand.

    i just gave enough leway to slip it in there.

    I was wondering how you did that. I didn't think it would be smart to just cut it with all that weight from the tank resting on it.

    i didn't have to cut it just hammered the brace out and hammered it back in after. put some screws in there just in case.

    looking good!

    good thinking on taking out the center brace, I probably wouldn't have been smart enough to do that!
