There’s a lot of ‘sexy’ and exciting equipment and gear in the broader aquarium hobby but none is more overlooked yet more crucial than the venerable aquarium stand. Aquarists might put a lot of consideration and research into what kind of stand they want for their next tank but we hardly give it a second thought once that tank is in place and the setup has started going.
多年来，简单的质量生产的胶合板架子或自建造的木材设计几乎拥有现代水族馆世界的水族馆架，但是有一段时间我们有更多的选择。您可能熟悉古董或古董“锻铁”摊位，这是水族馆享受的第一批金属摊位，但锻铁和海水并不是一个好配对。
最近，我们开始以模块化铝的形式在水族馆爱好中看到更多的金属支架，用于较小的储罐，以及用于非常大型储罐的焊接方管钢，它们都更适合于盐水水族馆周围使用。对于更美观的倾向，也有一个充分的玻璃架艾达（Ada）提供了摊位从直接的混凝土呢
What we’re trying to say is that there’s lots of different ways to build an aquarium stand and last weekend we built a new stand for the Reef Builders Studio with an interesting design and unique construction, at least as far as aquarium stands go. For this project we teamed up with David Wellmann of附近的lfs keepin'礁为了为200加仑丙烯酸坦克的紧急立场淘汰我们破产的立场，被迫建立一个盐水池塘容纳牲畜。
正如视频中清楚地说明的那样，我们是水产师，只有一定的木工体验，足以让我们遇到麻烦或完成工作，选择一个。我们坚信我们会建立一个由松树制成的曲奇摊位两个四分之一but were pleasantly surprised to see that David had something else in mind in the form of a more elegant plywood stand held together firmly with copious amounts of glue and brad nails which we erroneously referred to as staples in the video.
由此产生的方形摊位的出现与我们喜欢在礁石建筑工作室中看到的最低限度，并在下面有大量的空间和访问权限，以填充所有必要的礁石水族馆装备，以使水箱重新采用。You don’t need too much of a sketch to follow along with the the design and construction of this aquarium stand and hopefully it will inspire more DIY aquarists to build more elegant and attractive supporting stands, the most overlooked of all critical pieces of aquarium equipment.
