Pressure foam under large aquarium advice

[bradleyheathhays]

Setting up a 72" long 125 gal on a support I already know is irregular so I need to compensate all that I can. I've run up on this Youtube video showing the use of what is called pressure foam or possibly polystrom to help compensate for my kind of tank support issue. I've searched a couple online aquarium supply stores but I haven't been able to turn up any such product.

Here's the video...


Did a search on polystrom and it seems like it's out of Australia, and I'm guessing there's a US equivalent.

Does anyone know where I should look for this kind of foam?

Thanks

I think this is what you are looking for, http://www.homedepot.com/h_d1/N-5yc1...1#.USOyxmdnGSo

That works great mommy. However, I just use 2 or 3 layers of decoupling mats. You can get them in the flooring section of your local hardware store. They are used under wood and tile floors to evenly distribute weight.

I use the 1/2" rigid foam board under my 220g . (The pink stuff) when It was first suggested to me I thought that the weight would certainly crush the foam, but I guess the weight is spread out over enough area, because it did not smash it at all. When I set up my tank I was really concerned because I built the stand myself. And even though I was very meticulous about construction I was still concerned with all that weight.

I hope this helps.

Hi
I put styrofoam under my tanks and it seems to do the jobs I had foam under two 180's glass and a100 plex
