    any body have any pics of a 20g long under a 55g?
    i am getting a idea for a diff sump for my tank because mine doesnt have a fuge now. and there is no room for a fuge currently.
    any advice on getting it in while my display tank is stocked?
    i dont think it will fit through the front doors.

    If you have a center style between the doors it can be safely removed on MOST stands if you add more cross bracing under the top.

    You could also drain most of your water into buckets or rubbermades and slowly inch your tank out from the wall. I recently did this with my tank that holds 40 gallons (not too far of from 55). I inched one side out from the wall, slid the 20 long in through the back of the stand, and then inched the stand back to the wall. Definately worth not having to move to much around in your tank.
