how tall are your stands

I just made one, but mined 36 inch, seems little tall. How tall are yours?

 

Mine end up around 30 inches tall

this means they are ideal when viewed from a seated position, but you need to crouch when you approach the tank to look inside

the solution for me, was to move my arm chair closer to the tank LOL

i built mine at 32". its on a 40 breeder so a little bit of bending over is needed lol but 36" sounds good i wished i raised mine to 33"-34"

 

mine used to be about 27" (i think) was barely enough room to fit the skimmer under, and couldnt even try to empty it.
built a new one that ended up 39" tall. seems a good height for next to dining table, but think i'll need at least a 24" high tank to keep things in perspective.
room for a better skimmer and then some now tho

 

My current stand is 30" with a standard 90g tank. My new stand is 36" tall but I wanted it taller because the tank is only 12" tall.

 

where did you guys put 36 inch tank tall stands or taller stands? Like, i put it in the living room where tv is at, and it looks so tall!

maybe its good idea to put it at the entrence maybe?

 

I usually put my tanks in locations where you are walking up to them so i make my stands higher. My last one was 40"

 

That may be a good Idea, mine is 34" tall and I have it in my office.

Wherever you like it really is fine. Purely up to you.

 

my stand is 48" tall... but its an in-wall and i wanted it at eye level.

 

38.75" (started with 38" frame then adder top 3/4" shelve--wanted total coverage)

I tried to factor the height of the tank, going with taller rather than shorter. I didn't want the above tank equipment (lights, plumbing, etc) easily noticed by looking over hood.
