120 Gallon Frame Width

Postby jlemoine2 » Wed Mar 10, 2010 8:49 am

Hello All,

I'm in the process of building my stand for a 4 foot 120 gallon tank. My vision is to have the plastic frame of the tank covered by a lip on the stand. However, my tank is on backorder, which prevents me from making progress on the stand without all of the measurements I need. I know the outside dimensions of the tank with the frame, but I still need the width of the plastic trim.

Could one of you with an All-Glass-Aquarium or Aqueon brand glass 120g aquarium please measure the width of the plastic trim for me? Please be accurate to at least 1/8". I'm not sure Oceanic brand aquariums use the same size frame, so I would not be interested in that measurement.

Thanks in advance!

I have a 4' 120g if you want to come and have a look and measure and test your stand (mines not set up yet!)

I don't know what brand mine is but will go and measure the trim anyway for you.

Anna

EDIT: ok mines a all glass aquarium the trim is 3/4" high and 3/16" thick. Is that what you needed to know?
75g mixed reef w. sump: 1 yellow watchman goby, 1 starrie blennie, 1 1 spot foxface rabbitfish, pair yellow stripe maroon clown fish, 1 Mandarin Dragonet, various snails, hermit crabs, 2 peppermint & 1 cleaner shrimp and spiney urchin.
