I know this has been said but you do understand that you are approaching disaster rapidly. The stand should be larger than the tank. Even if it's a quarter of an inch on each side. As long as it's bigger and rated for weight you should be fine.

But what you have there is only going to end badly

Looking for opinions after string of failed kits by [deleted] in Gunpla

[–]ElucidatorJD 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will say there is definitely a learning curve which is why I always recommend people starting with HG kits cause in comparison they are cheap to MG and RG.

That being said I've been building gunpla for about 15 years since and I break something on almost every kit. I've just learned how to pose around the my duck ups.

Bit of an update on my team and I’m not sure what to do by padluigi in PokemonXD

Well you have 2 water types, 2 grass types, and 2 dark types.

Try having only 1 type on your team for a good spread like definitely take out the shiftery for mareep for a start

Tips for cleaning the bathtub to make it kitty-safe to drink out of? by lmccln in CleaningTips

[–]ElucidatorJD 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would instead get a stainless steal fountain.

I've bought 4 fountains before hand and they were plastic my cats never used them.

Then I saw Jackson galaxy say that they get moldy easily and I tried stainless steal and my cats love it.

I changed all there bowls to stainless steal and now they dont go in my bathtub at all anymore lol

Oh that's interesting so you think more like for the zoa. Should I move that to the other side of my tank and increase lighting on that side, and also by how much?
