madweazl February 21, 2015 February 21, 2015 Odd request but if you have a 75g DB aquarium, would you mind measuring the lower trim and posting the results? I need the height along with the over all length. The stand I just picked up can fit a tank roughly 48 3/8" long IF the trim the is about 1 5/8" in height (has a groove the trim slides into).
John Ford February 21, 2015 February 21, 2015 My 75 deep blue RR base black trim measurement is 48 1/8" long by 1 13/16" tall if that helps
madweazl February 21, 2015 Author February 21, 2015 My 75 deep blue RR base black trim measurement is 48 1/8" long by 1 13/16" tall if that helps Thank you, very helpful. Fascia on this stand will only accept tank trim that is 1.5" tall so this eliminates one brand.
Crob5965 February 21, 2015 February 21, 2015 I feel like the answer is always build your own stand lol.
AlanM February 21, 2015 February 21, 2015 My deep blue rimless is exactly the same measure as John Ford on the bottom black trim.

madweazl February 21, 2015 Author February 21, 2015 I'd appreciate trim measurements from other manufacturers to try and narrow this down further.
John Ford February 21, 2015 February 21, 2015 If you stain it dark you would hardly notice the little bit of black trim sticking past the lip on your stand.
madweazl February 21, 2015 Author February 21, 2015 Ran up to PetCo and measured the TopFin brand at 1 3/4".
madweazl February 26, 2015 Author February 26, 2015 (edited) I might just get a router bit for the Dremel and remove the lip around the trim so I can use the Deep Blue (or other manufacturer). The lip on the trim is 3/8" wide and there isnt room for a router because the trim is glued on. Edited February 26, 2015 by madweazl
