Desktop Aquatics Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 Alright so I need help…. I have this rack that can handle 1500 lbs and it’s 48x24x48, I got 2 custom rimmed tanks that are 48x24x16, unfortunately with the rim the are more around 49x25x17. It doesn’t quite fit on the rack by centimeters. I have a piece of 3/4 inch hardwood plywood underneath the tank as shown here there is some over hang on this tank but the inner of the rim are held by the plywood I’m just a little worried about the overhang… should I go buy a new piece of plywood to cover the over hang or am I making this a bigger deal than it is???

lefty o Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 id give 95% odds that its fine as is, but the price for new plywood thats just a tiny bit bigger buys a ton of piece of mind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desktop Aquatics Posted May 21, 2023 Author Share Posted May 21, 2023 @lefty o I think that might be the case I’d just leave it empty and grab a bigger piece and get it cut just sucks might be wasting a lot to gain an inch 🥲 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galabar Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 To my eye it kind of looks like the black plastic on the bottom (last image) is starting to curl inward. On a plastic rimmed tank, it is the plastic that is support the tank on its four corners. My advice would be to get a bigger piece of plywood. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
