    Will my countertop support more weight

    Will my countertop support more weight

    Thanks all for your replies. I had a go at dismantling the drawers and cabinets underneath the countertop.

    Will my countertop support more weight

    Hello all, I've been running a 20 gallon / 75 liter tank on my kitchen countertop for several months now fine, but I wanted to upgrade to a larger 36 gallon /136 liter tank, since the space to accommodate it is available in that spot. I already acquired the 36 g tank, but haven't swapped them...

    Above tank sump

    AS for the above tank sump, I will still set it up, I will use the method indicated by itiwhetu for the return flow, and looks like I'll have to be buying one of the aqueon 5 gallon standard rectangular tanks and modifying it for my sump purposes. I've searched quite a bit around and there...
