So I have been quite in love with corydoras and I want to start breeding them as my staple- therefore the 20L is perfect as it gives a nice footprint for 12-20 corydoras depending on species and is short so I can triple stack without touching the ceiling. The only major problem I find is that there isn't really any shelving I can get that is that 30 inch deep mark and is stable with a center brace. I know Menard's has the piece your own together with 30 inches deep, but last time I was there the whole rack fell on me- probably a bad omen. I'm not kidding- that literally happened.
Regardless- I have decided to build it out of wood. I'm not afraid of the work involved and I am comfortable with the DIY aspect as well, just really looking for suggestions on how to build it. I am sure I could devise something, but I know there are others out there on this forum that are more versed in building and design! I want to do the short end out for the tanks as it is for breeding. I want to do 3 rows of 4 tanks.
Bottom Row: 4 20L
Mid: 4 20L
Top: 4 29g
Due to the short length of shelves, I am thinking I can use 2x4's for the whole build. If anybody could show me their setups so I can draw something up and then price it out, it would be much appreciated!
Thank you for your time and help!
