how does my stand look?

[spikehs]

Just finished the frame of my stand and was wondering if it looked sturdy enough....I am pretty sure it is, i just need a few opinions!

Looks fine to me. Is it for a 3 foot tank? My 75g was on a similar stand. I skinned it with 1/2" plywood and it could have held a car.

yup its for a 3 foot tank...the *only* thing is, it won't rest on all 4 sides, as i wanted to be able to fit a 33gal tank underneath for a sump....will this pose a problem? I have extra wood, if it'll need more bracing.

Looks fine, I would put a piece of plywood on top though.

I don't think you'll need any aditional bracing. You could add a center brace in the front if you wanted to be extra sure, depending on how your door(s) are configured.

The way it sits in the pic, is that the top? If so dont you get alot of flex in the 2 longest 2x4's? You may want to turn them on their side or make sure you use wood glue when you sheet it.
