Hi ya
I have a free standing book case from IKEA which is made from hard wood. I would like to put a fish tank on one of the shelves which I plan to bracket to a wall (retaining wall). The tank is 34 litres and will probably equate to 40 kg fully filled with all the bits. The tank is 38 W x 25 D x 46 H cm.
I have found some brackets that will support up to 200kg, but a friend of mine has advised me that 40 kg is too much for a shelf.
Anybody else have any thoughts? Maybe recommend some brackets and fittings?
