Aquarium Stand Dimensions

The standard height is a functional stand, but it is also a self limiting stand. Huh? You can do a lot with the standard stands that are readily available but they will limit a large number of upgrades that you will want to put under your tank, in your sump or even outside of it. If you are going to run larger protein skimmers, calcium reactors, kalk stirrers, reaction chambers, the good ones, larger ones will barely fit, if at all inside a 30" high standard stand. My preference has been for a long time 36" high, as you can get and put much more inside, you have more space to woork in there when you need to. In the end you will be much happier.
