Ohhh that’s awesome isn’t it just perfect and so FRICKING CHEAP!! I’m telling you I’m the first to do it with the wainscoating it makes it look so sleek!! 🤙🏽💯🤙🏽
Thank you for the help!! My Dad just gifted me a 55 gallon and I was having a hard time finding a stand that was going to support 600lbs+ weight! Definitely can’t go wrong with cinderblocks! I even have grey paint on hand as my front room where it’s going is an oriental theme of grey, blues, and blacks. So it was an added touch to be able to “see” How it’s going to look in my home. 😉
Perfect timing on this video. Now I know what to do with my stand that already have for my 75 gallon bearded dragon tank. My wife gates the stand cause u can see everything underneath it. Thank you for sharing 👍🏼👍🏼
Brother... this video just made my life easier... I sold my tank setups due to financial reasons 🙃.. been without a tank for the past two years. And just now, I want to get back on it. But WOW, the prices of the hobby are THROUGH THE ROOF. Thank you so much for what you do. 🤙🏽✊🏾💯
Man, where have you been in my fishkeeping life = finally someone I understand, Dude thanks for your hard work and honest knowledge - truth. First time and will be here regularly.
I have my tank on a old computer desk. It doesn't match my decor and was looking for something else better suited but now I'm going to get me some velcro and Waynes coating and I'm in business, thanks for the idea! Plus my desk has wheels so it is ideal.
That vinyl is clutch, I use it on the floor, walls, whatever you want to protect. I like this idea dude, going to give this a try, but I like it just with the blocks and wood naked. Good stuff!
This is an expensive hobby, but its so exciting to me. You always give me good ideas. Iam going love making something similar. I am about to start an aqua scape with either guppies or Japanese rice fish. Since its my first time doing this, I am using a less expensive fish. Once I get my tank up and running I plan on having Tropheus duboisi masawas. If you know anything about these fish, can you please school me.
After a lot research, I ditch the cookie cutter aquascape and go bare bottom. Save $ on substrates and live plants. The pros of going bare bottom with simple Aquaponics setup. My fishes finished all their foods. The bottom of the tank stay sparky clean. My hang on household plants eliminated ammonia and algae. Water change only take a few minutes and I don't have to trim plants or gravels vacuum. A win win for me. Here a simple hole make video. ruclips.net/video/WxEO8QHW9Zc/видео.html Here are the sceenshots of my tank. imgur.com/gallery/CSHzEgP imgur.com/gallery/201V8IU Any suggestions for my tiny self cleaning tank? I lol'd at one of the guppy staring at my background photo. "You can make this hobby as easy or difficult, as cheap or expensive as you want. -bmrigs
Great ideas. Have seen some cinder block stands like this but I'm newer to this idea. So forgive the dumb question. But can't those cinder blocks just fall over easily if something bumps it?
There’s so much water weight on them that they don’t move at all!🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽 check out this video I recently did ruclips.net/video/gxjQGppdtBg/видео.htmlsi=nOgKH0o-Yhl8gSq1
I was going to get a 75 gallon tank with a stand for 300$ and now I can buy one without a stand for 100 dollars and build my own stand for way cheaper thanks a lot for this video!
I wonder how much weight the cincer blocks can hold like if you wanted to make a 125gal or bigger stand? And also, you didnt give yourself ability for any below shelve space. Wonder if anyone just covers the fronts of the blocks and leaves the inside open. But looks great
Yeah wasn’t looking to have shelves just wanted to do it easy simple and lowest cost if you do a 125g 6ft I would have a center brace of cinder blocks for support but if its a 4ft 125g aquarium no need for a center brace🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽💯
Awesome Like this idea Have a suggestion to finish it off, something like coping (not sure what its actually called) to cover the gaps between the front and side panels. I know Its nit picking but thought I would look even better. Keep up the great content, Thanks.
Thanks appreciate it!! Oh the reason is because of the measurements of the tank the tank would be a hanging off a little and it bugged me so I decided to add that row and turn it for space! That’s all but either way it’s super sturdy and works you can customize it how ever you like,, that’s what makes this build so cool!! 🤙🏽💯🤙🏽
@@conman20000 it could hang over the wood a little but like I said in the video my add kicks in and I wanted it to be on the wood lol the tank I was working with was a 75g…. 55g work really well with the Cinder blocks measurement wise less material 🤙🏽🤙🏽
@@HaYNFishKeeper Mine is 170 gallons so want to make sure it's properly supported. Do you think it's best to put the plywood I use at the base too sit on since I have shag carpet underneath? And would it matter how thick it is? Not really like it's really supporting the actual weight of the tank anyway?
Nice video 💯💯💯 but If some ones comes and just dashes your diy stand the blocks will just fall , try to make something that can hold the blocks together
Dashes?? I don’t live in a zoo😂😂😂 you factor the water weight that’s around 620lbs trust me it’s already been earth quake tested from other aquarist, this isn’t my idea people have been using cinder block stands for decades I just merely added my special touch to it!! 🤙🏽🐠🤙🏽
I gave you as always the thumbs up, would I go this route no. Me myself and I have always preferred the 2X4 route and there are many other routes out there. Is this a cost effect route yes. I personally would go the 2X4 route if you can to do so and can use a power drill to use to insert screws. As I have said yes cost effective but with the 2X4 or similar method there are many additions you can add like doors and others. The only issue that I see in this design is the possibility of the frame shifting over time. I come from the 1970's doing this and never had an issue with a wood constructed frame going out of spec. Although well intentioned think for a bit before going this route. Structurally solid is the goal with the ability to add to the structure. With solid wood you can give and take. No question this is the "Cheap" route in which many might need to setup a nice Aquarium. Don't take this wrong but we need to learn how to use tools safely. We need to get back into the game in the U.S. Period.
Oh it’s extremely safe, it’s nothing new it’s been around the aquarium hobby for decades I just added my own twist to it with adding the Wainescoting simple and very coat effective 🤙🏽💎🤙🏽
Aren’t those cinder blocks about 30 pounds each? That’s like 540 pounds just from the blocks? I’d be scared to put that on the floor in my house.. that plus a 55 gallon tank, we’re over 1000 pounds!
So, I got mine done but it looks like all the weight is going to the middle columns, it's a 6 foot tank Iand have the same the same cinder block layout as you, expect an added column, making a T in the middle. Why is all the weight going to the middle? The tank was custom done so it has a plywood board attached to the bottom already
@@HaYNFishKeeper @Ha Y N Fish Keeper No just a piece of plywood at the very base and then the cinder blocks and then the fish tank which has the built-in plywood base. I could add another piece of plywood for the tank too sit on. I don't mind using lumber instead, but I was told plywood was flatter and more even?
@@conman20000 I mean yes and no 2x4 will keep the weight evenly and keep the tank stable my opinion I feel get a 2x4x10 and cut those pieces accordingly at least 3 pieces running the length of the aquarium
Feeding cows,horses,pigs and chickens and thought of something I have to take issue with you forgot one wood 🪵- John Wood me and no S so I’m one tree not the entire Forrest! 🥸🥸 keep up the good work!
Maybe on the second floor of a two story house but not for a single story house… trust me it’s all over RUclips I’m definitely not the first hobbyist to do this there’s all kind of videos on RUclips I just did mine with a little bit more style 🤙🏽🤙🏽💯
Awesome cheap build! I know a 75 gallon tank filled with water weight is about 600lbs. Every 1 gallon is 8 pounds. I think this is an awesome build but if you have crazy children or big crazy dogs that bump into things, I’d be afraid of them knocking one of the cement blocks over and watch my tank crash to the ground. Every great build if you don’t have any rascals running around. Please don’t take this as me hating just watching out for people.
@@HaYNFishKeeper yea it would take some major force to knock it over but once the water flushes to one side and the force of water comes back the other way it could but that’s very unlikely I guess.. maybe I’m just thinking to much outside the box hahaha
I love this DIY idea!!! Can’t wait to try this on so many things, great job & imagination
Thank you so much 🤙🏽💯♥️have fun with it get creative
Life saver! I’m redoing a 180 gallon. I’m doing this 100%
