Hmmm I dont know if they sell them for that size. Can you just put it on something like a dresser or something? Maybe you can make just a little table and not have it a hex shape but just have it big enough for it to fit on it?

hi Bling,

Sounds pretty similar to my Clearseal Hex tank, you might wanna have a look at their website and see if it got the same dimensions as any of their tanks?

( just popped in to check it and it seems to be down for some reason, but plenty of people stock the tanks, if you want to google it?)

Hi Bling,
You should look around, I've seen stands for the smaller hex tanks. Also ask the pet stores, sometimes they can order you one if they don't have one sitting on the floors.
I believe I saw some recently at Pet smart too come to think of it! Anyway, just because they don't have one on the floor doesn't mean they can't get it! biggrin.gif
