Buying advice

When choosing an aquarium stand, ensure it is rated for your tank size and weight. Consider storage needs: some stands have cabinets and shelves, while open frames are simpler. Assembly difficulty varies, so check reviews. Metal stands are sturdy and cheap but less attractive; wood stands look nicer but may cost more. Always place on a level floor to avoid stress cracks.
