Cheaper alternative to Waterbox Cube 20

I don't quite understand why aquarium stands are so expensive, most of these Ikea style flat trivets aren't even made out of plywood. However, this Landen coaster costs almost half what Waterbox charges for its coasters. I bought this stand for my Waterbox 20 Cube and it fits perfectly. The front of the tank sticks out about half an inch, but that's okay, and the Waterbox Cube and Red Sea max Nano tanks/stands do the same to keep the front glass flush with the cabinet door. A support from what that a chipboard, but it is better? I'm not sure what it's officially called, but the panels are also finished with a smooth, easy-to-clean finish. If you've ever assembled Ike furniture, the instructions and tools/parts provided are almost identical. Some of the screws come in at a slight angle and you may need to use some force to slide them into adjacent panels. The delivery was... crazy. It was packed in a super hard wooden box. It was a bit of a hassle to open but the packaging box inside and more importantly the stand plates were safe and sound upon delivery.

Pros
  • Easy to use material
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
