i wish too, but my tanks are all ~1.5 years old (only).... guess i would need to fill up the tank to the max... but really afraid of the weight..

depends on individual, bio-load wise, shld be able handle, visually it looks rather tight - though the wood makes a difference to the perception, as the tank is 2.5 width, so space wise is still ok, but must admit height is not ideal at all...
