  • Hey Guys! Let me show you the Perfect IKEA Aquarium Stand! We are starting the new project with the Dennerle Scaper's Tank 70 Liter. First we need a stand, so we took a trip down to IKEA and bought this Besta cabinet! Now of course this is not strong enough to hold a tank, so we need to reinforce it! So in part 1 we are going to reinforce the inside of this cabinet.

    Where did you get the wood blocks for the four corners for extra support ?

    Good luck with your new scape. Can’t wait to see what you have planned for the tank. I really enjoyed your tanks on my visit and I’m very happy with a 80 liter Sera tank! I hope to find some scaping tips on your channel in the future. Groeten, Alwin

      You are welcome! I don’t know what improvements you still have planned but I would add a beam in between the vertical ones you have already placed and put it across the backwall from top left to bottom right or vice versa to improve sideway stability to prevent the stand from swaying from left to right. Just my two cents ;-)

    Would you put a 200L on the bigger Besta’s too?

      I’ve used IKEA Besta stands, shelves, bookshelves, the most I ever put on one was a 29Gallons. Had it up for over a year. No issues. Very sturdy stands, weight distribution allows it to hold it well.

    Did you have to wait hours in a loooong queue to get into Ikea?
    I really enjoy your videos! How come you don't have more followers?! We have to change that soon 🤗
    The quality of your videos is so good!

    I'd say that Ikea has poor quality wooden forniture. Try not to get the stand wet when doing water changes or it will break!.

    Those reinforcements were totally unnecessary. You could jump over this cabinet all day long without a problem. Trust the wood.
