Aqueon Metal 10 Gallon Fish Tank Aquarium Stand, 20" L x 10" W x 28.25" H

I think this is a great stand. It is heavy duty and modern looking with an Asian flair. The main frame and top and lower shelves clip on and are held by resistance. I own a small shelving system that has no screws and is held together by resistance and it is the strongest shelving I own. I have the 9.5 gallon Imagitarium Glass Versa tank and the style suits the stand and fits beautifully. As others have stated it seems to have a slightly short leg that I fixed by doubling up with my anti-slip pads I put on the bottom of the legs. For the thickness of the metal and the style I think it is priced reasonably. For the decorative section a power screwdriver or small drill would definitely be handy. Only took me about a half an hour to completely set up. Would not hesitate to purchase again.

This review is for the “Aqueon Forge Metal Aquarium Stand, 20 by 10 inch, Black”. I can’t say enough good things about this product. It’s extremely sturdy, was super easy to assemble, reasonably priced and the package upon arrival was easy to lift and unbox by myself (wasn’t heavy or cumbersome). This stand is specifically made for a 10 gallon aquarium with dimenions measuring 20” by 10” on top. The top shelf has four pegs in the corners that match up perfectly to hold a 10 gallon aquarium in place and keep it there securely. The bottom shelf has no pegs and can accommodate another small tank or supplies. The clearance from floor to bottom shelf is approximately 7 inches which leaves room for a small basket of aquarium supplies. The only small CON, and it is very small, is that access to the tank on the bottom shelf (if you opt to put one there) is somewhat impeded by the decorative front panel. There are several inches of clearance, but working from the top down as one normally would when arranging plants, adding new fish, or performing a water change, it can be a little difficult to maneuver. It’s a small thing and I only mention it to help others who might be planning to put a tank underneath. You do have complete access on the sides as the panel is only on the front. I do not know what the total load bearing capacity for this stand is but it is specifically made for a 10 gallon aquarium on top. Shown in the pictures are the pegs on the top shelf of the stand which holds the 10 gallon tank in place and the stand with a 10 gallon aquarium on top and a 5.5 gallon aquarium on the bottom. I highly recommend this product.

Pros: + Sturdy + Holds my TopFin 20 tall on the top and 10 gallon standard on the bottom no problem. + One of the few 2 tank stands out there which will hold a 20 and a 10. Which suited my needs perfectly since space was concern. + Alignment Pegs are nice for a standard FRAMED aquarium to keep bumps from being disastrous. + Quick Assembly Cons: - Holes are too small for the screws. You may be able to muscle them in or you may need to drill the holes out a little bigger. - The wood side of the panels is not wood colored they are straight up orange. Not a big issue for me as I was planning on using the black side anyway. Just be aware if you are trying to match wood furniture. - Minor paint blemishes. My unit had 3 blemishes on the powder coat. Luckily these were not in area that are noticeable once assembled. - Slightly overpriced. In my opinion this should be about $20-$30 dollars less than what I paid. Conclusion: If you are looking for a 2-tank stand this is one of the only decent options out there. It is a little overpriced for what you get but still worth it as it was the only option I found that fit my space constraints and held both a 20 tall and standard 10. I would buy again without hesitation, and I would recommend this stand to fellow fish keepers.

Overall, I’d highly recommend this stand. It is very classic looking, easy to assemble, and perfect for where I wanted to place it. I had a lot of trouble finding the information I needed before making my purchase, so I have attached pictures and measurements to help anyone else with the same questions. Measurements: Top Shelf: 20 ½” x 10 ½” Bottom Shelf: 21 ¾” x 14” Width, at the widest part of legs: 15 ¾” Length, at the widest part of legs: 22 ¾” Total Height, with 10-gal + furniture sliders on legs: 41” Review: I have the 20x10 stand for a 10-gallon tank, with the 10-gallon Aqueon rimless rectangle aquarium, since there were concerns about other styles of tank fitting on top. It does nest perfectly on the pegs. I did duct tape the back of the tank to the back of the stand to prevent shifting while aquascaping and filling. Due to where my tank is located and the sheer weight of everything in it, I don’t anticipate a bump will move it. I knew what to expect from the other reviews/questions, so I was prepared for assembly. I confirmed that the screws that come with the stand did not fit in the pre-drilled holes, so I just used regular screws from a picture-hanging kit I had on hand. I assembled it on its side and used my legs to hold it apart while sliding the bottom shelf in. It took about 15 minutes to put it together fully. Per some of the suggestions and other reviews, I added furniture sliders to each leg. There's also a very slight gap underneath the two bars that support the tank, so I just slid in a couple of the furniture sliders in there as well to provide additional support. The total measurements for the bottom shelf are 21 ¾” x 13 ¾”. You could add a bigger tank (6-10 gallon) on that shelf, provided it is the square/cube style. You couldn’t fit another 10-gal rectangle tank on there due to the tapering upwards of the legs. I’d also recommend placing some thick plywood down if your tank is bigger than the recommended 5.5 gallons that the little shelf will support. I’ll likely add a 9-gallon bowl or similar in a couple of months (and see if I remember to update the review!). Hope this is helpful! Update: I’ve added an Aqueon 6 gallon cube to the bottom shelf, with a 1/2” birch plywood support. The plywood was cut to 14” x 12”, and supports the tank perfectly. I have it off center for aesthetic.

Bought the 10 Gallon stand - and while it’s a bit pricey, it works great. Assembly was pretty easy (screw holes are a bit small, so some brute force was needed to get the screws in, but it worked). Looks fantastic, seems sturdy, and holds my Marina 10 Gallon nicely. Love the little shelf at the bottom too.

Although priced quite high but great for holding a 60 to 70 cm (length) aquarium

Easy to put together and move. Correct height for me to manage my aquarium and put my little one underneath.

Excellent Aquarium stand. sturdy and easy to assemble. My Stand took only 1 day to show up after it was shipped The estimated delivery was a month. So I am more than happy with this purchase. Probably consider buying another stand like this in the near future. Also for folks considering this stand. 20 Gallon tall fits perfectly on bottom shelf 20 Gallon long is to wide to fit on bottom shelf.

Parfait pour aquarium de 29 gallons, toutefois c'est mon 2ème et toujours le même problème les vis pour la tablette avant , vraiment presque impossible a pénétrer, j'aimerais un conseil de la part de la compagnie , j'ai brisé un bon tournevis. L'assemblage pour le meuble lui-même très simple, le côté négatif c'est l'assemblage de la tablette avant.
