    If you get those standard stands like you see at the pet shops with round bar legs and angle iron base for the tank to stand on check the corner welding and give a good sand blast and seal it with proper paint. I lost 2 tanks to those stands as they started to rust on the welds, the first one caused uneven bulges and the base cracked from pressure pushing on the front edge of the base. The 2nd one the corner weld rusted away and the tank toppled. I will be honest took a few years and if I paid closer attention I could have prevented both accidents.
