Well, thanks God for HomeDepot
Free wood, free tools only purchased long screws.
HayZee, i found a piece of flat 3/4 inch board with white finish. I sawed more of the 30x60x90 triangle. Found only one stud, and found it with a magnet (thanks again). I found out that there is 16in space between the studs, so only one fit under the counter. I recalculated the weight of the aquarium with water and i believe you made a mistake, it came to be 240lb. (1gl=8.3lb)
I'm little over 200lb and it set on it and it seems solid.
Pictures attached. I appreciate you help very much!!!
If you think i missed anything, please let me know.

Thanks
