If it's anything like my marineland sedona stand, the center piece isn't load bearing, but more decorative for the doors to close against.

Examples:

Default sump leaking

Hey Cathy,

if u need a hand i can help u out, i built my only stand out of 6 8ft 2x4 and 2 sheets of 3/4 plywood. stand weighs about 200lb and can hold a truck. i've never like the stands brought at the store. just seams weak. i have no brace in the middle. reinforcing it will be easy, just need glue and couple pieces of 2x4.

let me know.

If it does start leaking again we have some Orca glue at the store, you wont have to drain it out again to use it...

so far so good... the only things that seem stressed are the toadstool and the anemone but the anemone was stressed before so he might now make it...
