## Description

Aqueon Forge aquarium stands offer the flexibility that hobbyists desire. Reversible wood panels allow you to choose your color: black or light brown. Each aquarium stand is equipped with a bottom shelf that can be utilized for a second tank or to showcase home décor. The center wood panel flips upward for easy access to the bottom shelf. Steel construction provides great durability and features a rust-resistant powder-coated finish.

Review: Great 10 gallon aquarium stand! - I think this is a great stand. It is heavy duty and modern looking with an Asian flair. The main frame and top and lower shelves clip on and are held by resistance. I own a small shelving system that has no screws and is held together by resistance and it is the strongest shelving I own. I have the 9.5 gallon Imagitarium Glass Versa tank and the style suits the stand and fits beautifully. As others have stated it seems to have a slightly short leg that I fixed by doubling up with my anti-slip pads I put on the bottom of the legs. For the thickness of the metal and the style I think it is priced reasonably. For the decorative section a power screwdriver or small drill would definitely be handy. Only took me about a half an hour to completely set up. Would not hesitate to purchase again.
Review: Perfect in every way - This review is for the “Aqueon Forge Metal Aquarium Stand, 20 by 10 inch, Black”. I can’t say enough good things about this product. It’s extremely sturdy, was super easy to assemble, reasonably priced and the package upon arrival was easy to lift and unbox by myself (wasn’t heavy or cumbersome). This stand is specifically made for a 10 gallon aquarium with dimenions measuring 20” by 10” on top. The top shelf has four pegs in the corners that match up perfectly to hold a 10 gallon aquarium in place and keep it there securely. The bottom shelf has no pegs and can accommodate another small tank or supplies. The clearance from floor to bottom shelf is approximately 7 inches which leaves room for a small basket of aquarium supplies. The only small CON, and it is very small, is that access to the tank on the bottom shelf (if you opt to put one there) is somewhat impeded by the decorative front panel. There are several inches of clearance, but working from the top down as one normally would when arranging plants, adding new fish, or performing a water change, it can be a little difficult to maneuver. It’s a small thing and I only mention it to help others who might be planning to put a tank underneath. You do have complete access on the sides as the panel is only on the front. I do not know what the total load bearing capacity for this stand is but it is specifically made for a 10 gallon aquarium on top. Shown in the pictures are the pegs on the top shelf of the stand which holds the 10 gallon tank in place and the stand with a 10 gallon aquarium on top and a 5.5 gallon aquarium on the bottom. I highly recommend this product.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Would this hold 555 pounds? I have a 20 gallon tank on top and want to put my 29 gallon tank on bottom.**
A: I wouldn’t trust that. It’s not made strong enough to hold that much weight and I don’t think a 29 gallon will even fit on the bottom. How did you get a 20 gallon on top? It must be a deep tank. My 10 gallon just fits perfectly on top.

**Q: Do i have to put something on the top shelf before putting my tank? A piece of wood or something?**
A: Not if you are putting a 10 gallon tank with the right dimensions on there.  It fits perfectly and should not need anything else underneath.

**Q: How tall is the 20'x10' without the tank?**
A: 27" tall

**Q: Does this fit a 20 x 12 10gallon tank**
A: No, the top is designed for a 20 x 10 tank

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice Stand Would Buy Again
*by F***T on March 4, 2023*

Pros: + Sturdy + Holds my TopFin 20 tall on the top and 10 gallon standard on the bottom no problem. + One of the few 2 tank stands out there which will hold a 20 and a 10. Which suited my needs perfectly since space was concern. + Alignment Pegs are nice for a standard FRAMED aquarium to keep bumps from being disastrous. + Quick Assembly Cons: - Holes are too small for the screws. You may be able to muscle them in or you may need to drill the holes out a little bigger. - The wood side of the panels is not wood colored they are straight up orange. Not a big issue for me as I was planning on using the black side anyway. Just be aware if you are trying to match wood furniture. - Minor paint blemishes. My unit had 3 blemishes on the powder coat. Luckily these were not in area that are noticeable once assembled. - Slightly overpriced. In my opinion this should be about $20-$30 dollars less than what I paid. Conclusion: If you are looking for a 2-tank stand this is one of the only decent options out there. It is a little overpriced for what you get but still worth it as it was the only option I found that fit my space constraints and held both a 20 tall and standard 10. I would buy again without hesitation, and I would recommend this stand to fellow fish keepers.
