Hi guys...
I have a slight problem at the moment, I have a 1m x 0.5m x 0.5m Acrylic tank... The problem is the cabinet has a partition in the middle, I've had a look and the partition seems easy enough to remove... It is supporting the tank, but the side and back walls of the cabinet are considerably thicker than the middle partition, so I don't think it would have too much impact on the stability of the cabinet... Has anyone here managed to remove the middle partition to make room for a SUMP successfully, The tank isn't exactly massive, and if my estimate is correct should weigh no more than 250kg...
The only problem I could see happening is warping on the front side which would make the cabinet doors difficult to open, and the even more difficult to close... I'm not much of a handyman myself, so building a support beam at the front would be a full weekend task for me, maybe longer...
The GF is complaining about the big plastic make shift SUMP thing that's sitting in our lounge at the moment, so if you guys could recomend someone that could help with building and installing a SUMP that would also be a great help...
Thanks in advance
Paul
