Well haven't tried that much weight, however it is very sturdy metal so I don't think you will have a problem as long as it isn't to tall that it might offset the balance. Check the specs to be sure it will fit.

I would think that a 15-20 gallon fish tank would go on this night stand just fine. Water is 8.75 lbs per gallon, so that would be 130-175 lbs or so . . . I've stood on it to re-arrange some draperies and I'm in that weight category.

You can buy an empty tank 5lb from amazon, and place it in an exchange service. I know monster aquarium inc does it. $18 per fill. Mines been running for six months.

This would be sturdy enough to hold a 20 gallon fish tank. If you have read the reviews you notice that it is a pain to put together. We are happy with it but the quaility is not the best. It will last maybe 5 years.

Capacity Is 1.5 gal eachBut I wouldn't put that much in eachNot sure if base will support so much weight

I don't really know, how big is your tank? I use it a 12.5g and it works great.

Typically the desired ratio is 1 pound of gravel per gallon of water so for my tank I bought just one 5 pound bag of gravel and it worked great!

Not sure about a weight limit but it has no problem supporting my 65 gallon tank.

It's a really nice little tank. Any fish will do great but it is very small. I think if you did somethinglike a neon or molly you could have up to 4 or 5.

One 5 pound package was largely sufficient for this aquarium. I even have a large ornament and several artificial plants, and on bag was enough to cover the bases and still have plenty at the bottom (about 1 1/2 - 2 inches gravel).

I use mine on a five gallon tank and think it would work equally well for 10 gallons... I would not go smaller.

We have used a max of 3 gallons *or around 30 lbs without issue...while our pots are 5 gal...we chose not to stressthis wonderful appliance. Water runs around 8lbs per gallon..so we add around 6 lbs max of stuff....one of our 5 gallon pots for some reasondoes not work..appliance doesn't turn on...could be the stainless is not stainless but aluminum? We use the ap[pliance for many chores since we can set set time and temp, and buzz off to do other things.btw, we do some poachings in black iron...no issue.

The weight limit for the top of this unit is only 50lbs. I would assume a 40 gallon fish tank would exceed that, but I don't really have any knowledge of the weight on that. Sauder recommends that you stay within the weight and dimensional guidelines listed on their products. Thank you.

This is more suited to smaller tanks. A 5 gallon tank really stretches its limits. Other than by touch, you can get a fish tank decal thermometer to get a general idea of the temperature.

As stated you can use a 20lb tank but it won't last long. A 100lb tank or larger is best.
