The SBX cabinet built for the Juwel Rio 290 — 101 × 51 × 80 cm, water-repellent surface, handleless push-to-open doors, rated to 550 kg. At 80 cm it is one of Juwel's taller cabinets, which puts a 290 litre tank at comfortable viewing height standing up.
Never put a mat or polystyrene under a Juwel tank. The aquarium's safety base frame spreads the weight by itself and Juwel's instructions forbid an underlay — the tank sits directly on the cabinet.
Think about the floor. A filled Rio 290 with the cabinet is comfortably over 350 kg on a 101 × 51 cm footprint. On a suspended timber floor, check the joist direction and set the tank across them.
