Would this hold a 20 gallon fish aquarium? With extra mounts to wall so it wouldnt tip? lol

to be on the safe side, I would not trust it to hold a huge tank like a 20 gallon.... LOL I would not want to clean up that mess!!! (just in case)

It definitely won't. Like another poster commented, after you fill the aquarium with water and other things it weights around 200lbs and this is not designed to bear that kind of weight.

i wouldn't test it. it's a good stand alone unit for medium weight stuff, even books, but it's not designed for that kind of load.

If you're filling that tank with fish and water, NO. If you're filling that tank with some stones and a cute little hermit crab, sure.

Absolutely not! This is a particle board unit with a cardboard back. It is not designed to hold that sort of weight. Even if this was made of hardwood, the boards are too thin to individually offer the sort of strength you would need. It would be stronger if placed on the floor with the openings facing up, but still not strong enough to hold an aquarium. Heavy steel metal stands are typically used to hold fish tanks and when wood is used, i have seen 2 inch thick boards used (2 x 4's). This would collapse (most likely sideways) at some point under the weight.

With gravel and water, a 20 gallon aquarium would weigh about 200 lbs. With the aquarium centered above the center upright piece(s), it might be okay. Nevertheless, over time, the "wood" will likely start to sag and any water that escapes the aquarium would damage the unit. Personally, I would look for something better suited.

Because of the nature of aquariums, I'd hesitate with that. Water tends to slosh around and become unstable during cleanings, etc. That might be a question to direct to the manufacturer.

I would say no. It would tip too easily as there is a space on each side which is open.

I'm not sure how much it can hold but I'm sure it can hold a fish tank. It's pretty well built and very easy to assemble. I was very impressed with the quality. Good luck. Tom

Yes, it will tip if not mounted and not stand up with the lid open. Mine isn't mounted, but is stored leaning on a wall.

not really; more of a platform to climb down....it is suppose to be mounted on a 10 gallon aquarium

It probably could but bear in mind the table was designed for lighter weight items and may not be stable enough, due to its geometry and higher center of gravity to support a 20 lb. television without the possibility of tipping unless you were to anchor this table to a wall. It does come with a wall anchor kit.

It is ABSLOLUTELY NOT designed for that. Shelf might be strong enough, but it would tip right over, in my opinion.

It seems sturdy enough to support it OK. Is the top large enough for the aquarium?

No. I have two 27inch BenQ monitors attached and it does not tip. When I first got my unit, I was dismayed that it might have to be screwed down. I did not want to ruin my refinished wooden desk that also had a glass top overlaid. I set it up with the stand only. No problems. Also the 2 monitors fit easily with a lot of room for adjustments.

We put ours on top of a bigger piece (3-sectioned bins) and have had zero concerns with tipping. When it's full it's heavy and with the wide base I don't see it. But anythings possible I suppose. The bottom of it has a rim that sticks out so I think it would be difficult to mount on the wall.

Assuming you're talking about the larger stand, I would say it shouldn't be a problem. I had a 10gal tank for the smaller stand. Since the stand is heavy wrought iron, I was never concerned about it tipping over. I put plexiglass in the shelves, but that was more for aesthetics. It is quite sturdy. I you match the tank with the appropriate stand, you should have no worries.

Not likely. The third pannel is too tight and just two pannels extends the screws out too far. When we installed ours it kept popping off on its own. When we finally had it stable we tested it and it popped out again. The wall mounts might stablize it better, but we couldn't screw anything into the wall we were using. Even then it was so wobbly we were doubtful.

I used 2 of these brackets, screwed into studs, with a 36 inch long 1x8 for the shelf. As configured, the shelf supports a variety of laundry detergents and supplies which weigh, in all, about 10 pounds. I would not use it to support anything that weighed more than 20 pounds. The brackets are well worth the money I paid for them. I wish I could send you a photo, but I don't know how.

It could but you would have to build a custom mount to make sure it is centered. It is pretty good for a little tank.

The shelves would definitely not hold 25 lbs. I have light items like cosmetics on mine (I have it in a bathroom). I love the shelf unit, but it isn't sturdy in that way.

I think it would, but I would honestly want to anchor it to a wall. It is heavy and I would hate to see it tip over.

I would not put your V in this rack. The tips will touch the floor. Wall mount recommended.
