At this point I think what I will do is simply make the center opening narrower. It's a little over 4 feet wide as it is but I'm not sure why i wanted to be able to push a 4 foot sump straight in. If i make that gap say 3 feet wide instead i can still slide the sump in and I don't think a 3 foot gap would be trouble at all.

Don't really see any reason why that wouldn't work either.

What do ppl here recommend for a sump? I was thinking a 75 gallon or something. That would be 1.5 feet wide and 4 long. Think i could fit that in there through a 2.5 foot opening given the stand's front to back width of 2.5 feet?
I think I need to rig a cardboard tank and test that one out lol...

Probably a good idea on the center brace. Your sump will just have to be a little taller to make up for the length that you can't get in there.

I believe that you screwed the plywood ends on? Maybe you could just unscrew the plywood from one end and slide the sump right in from one end. Then just screw the ply back in place.
