Anyone "hang" a tank on a wall?


Recommended Posts

Would love to add another tank to my setup that would go above my current sump.  The wall behind it is concrete/cinder block and wondered if I could drill it and put rebar in then have the tank on top of that?  Not sure how to determine how much weight concrete and rebar could hold?  There just isnt much room at all to be able to build a wooden stand, so wondered about this as an option.

Depending on the tank size you could easily do this. You could use the rebar as a support for shelving, and if needed use some sort of hanging support for the front of the shelf. I’ve looked into doing this multiple times but would have to do a REALLY small tank or do some major construction to reinforce my wall. We can talk it over on Saturday.
