I am new to the hobby and by no means knowledgeable enough for reef tanks. However, I have a 56 gallon, 24 inch tall glass freshwater aquarium that I LOVE. Everything in my apartment is earthquake secure (i.e. bookshelves, tvs, etc) to the wall to prevent anything from falling on someone during an earthquake. However, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to secure my aquarium.
I use Quakehold! 4 and 7 inch steel cables everywhere in my house, but I could not get them to work on my aquarium stand. I tried, but the particle board began to split when I tried to install it. So I don't have it secured at all. I have contacted some companies with no help. I am including a couple of pictures of my set-up in hopes I get some good feedback
