So this is my first post on this forum (hi!) and I've come with a question that has sort of been concerning me even after all the reading, and research, and trying to mentally plan things out as well as talking to two aquarium loving buddies. They've both given me a different answer to this question, so I'm seeking fresh minds.
I'm intending to get a 25G tank - do I need to spend money on a specialized stand to hold all the weight, or will my solid-wood chest of drawers be enough to handle it? Additionally, I've seen warnings about being sure the floor will take the weight of the tank; is that really such a huge concern, or is this intended for places like apartments and such, where the floors might be thinner or made of lower quality materials?
Thanks for looking!
