Look around (the Net, hardware and larger LFS stores) and you will find examples of both

As such, they can be made smaller to handle the same bio-load, and are indeed space saving. As submerged media, however, they are wholly dependant on the flow of water to bring food and oxygen to them. In some ways, they compete with livestock (for oxygen) and can contribute deleteriously to water quality if overfed (fast nitrate accumulation).

It is a technical but reliable reference that simply must be on the books

For the safety of your person and property, be sure to have a professional evaluate and confirm the integrity of the aquarium and the solid foundation of the stand, as well as the floor upon which it sits.
