what is the weight capacity? I would like to put a 6 gallon beta fish tank on one of the tiers?

I don't see why not. Mine is loaded with pans, crockpot, cooking books, not a single wiggle!

Hmmm... 50lbs of weight on one shelf... that may be pushing it? I'd say about 25-30lbs max on each shelf.... Sorry!

I couldn't tell you the exact weight capacity, but I don't think it could hold a fish tank. It's not super sturdy, more decorative, mainly. I put things like candles and a music box on mine.

I found the item a bit shaky, of course, I had it put on a carpeted floor. You're talking a weight of some 50 pounds here, though. I can't recommend it, the different levels are each fastened by a not-so-long screw and the pillars are hollow but for a plastic disc in the ends, it might hold, but could well buckle. It's meant more for smaller knickknacks than your planned monstrous item.

Hi. I believe it actually can. I have a big and large fish tank on mine. I wish I could join a picture to show you, unfortunately I don't see that option in here.

Label indicates will hold up to 6 lbs. of food. I would estimate size of storage container is just a little smaller than a gallon milk jug.

5/6 plenty light enough and holds lots of backing and big enough to handle larger flies and poppers for the bass and panfish. It's big enough that if you hook a bigger bass(2+ lbs) you'll be able to handle it.

I was able to place my 20 gallon on the bottom of the stand but did not keep it there. The reason is because petco did not cover anything about using the bottom to hold a 20 gallon. This could cause one big issue for you as well the fish in both tanks. So my advice would be not to try it! You could always contact the company and ask them directly but more likely get told nearly what I covered. I hope that helps you out.

It is quite large when all of the tiers are together.. I put 96 on it one time. I usually take the bottom tier off and it hold about half of that. This thing is quite nice and easy to clean.

Umm... 55 gallons of water is over 440 pounds and that does not even include the tank. I think if you try to imagine two or three grown adults standing on this table (or any table) you will get your answer. I think you need something with steel legs or at least really sturdy hardwood (like solid oak, cherry, etc.). Take a look at stands designed specifically for aquarium tanks, see what they are made of, and go from there. Good luck!

One 5 pound package was largely sufficient for this aquarium. I even have a large ornament and several artificial plants, and on bag was enough to cover the bases and still have plenty at the bottom (about 1 1/2 - 2 inches gravel).

That depends upon what is put on it. I can say that it is very sturdy and will hold 75 lbs or more easily. I have had several fish on it at once with no problems. Great fishing table.

The top shelf would hold a 10 gal. Tank but the shelf below, not quite. Possibly an 8 gal. would fit there. I use the lower shelf for Critter Keepers with frogs in them

The entire tank is 2.3 gal.It's great divided for small fish. I used mine divided into 3 instead of 5 . i had 2 Betta's and put a dwarf frog in the middle.

Water weights 7 lbs per gallon. I would believe it would be possible to pull over a 10 gallon, it would more diffucult as the tank size gets larger. The stand is not wobbly with the tank filled but i would not trust a toddler alone with a tank, they always seem to find something to climb on... Curiousity gets the best of them:)

I have a 55 gallon tank also, this stand is amazingly strong, it's sturdy, you will be very pleased, I sure am. Hope this helps you.

DO NOT attempt to put a 13 gallon fish tank, or anything above 2 gallons on this. Water is extremely heavy and this thing is VERY unstable with much more weight than a few light porcelain/ceramic ornaments. It will hold your 13 gallon tank at first, and if any water gets on it at all, or the water in the tank shifts due to a disturbance, it will all come tumbling down. Basically, it's a time bomb waiting to blow in that situation.

The DVD's would be OK. The fish tank is a maybe. the top surface might suffer from spills. Perhaps a coat of waterproof paint would be advised. There is a weight limit on the middle shelf but the unit as a whole should hold an ordinary 10 gal tank(put some heavy items in bottom shelf to offset the top weight?). The unit might be a bit tipsy if your tank is one of the tall/narrow ones - could be a danger for small children. The pet store sells flimsier units to hold tanks so it should be OK for ordinary use.

The tank is 6.6 gallons, a pretty decent size and it doesn't have a large 'footprint' (meaning it doesn't stick out far from the wall or whatever you put it against).

With gravel and water, a 20 gallon aquarium would weigh about 200 lbs. With the aquarium centered above the center upright piece(s), it might be okay. Nevertheless, over time, the "wood" will likely start to sag and any water that escapes the aquarium would damage the unit. Personally, I would look for something better suited.
