Warehouse Shevling For Stand?

[CBBP]

Has anyone ever used this for shelving? If so how is it?

smaller than this but yeah.

Look into Gorilla Racks, standard fishroom equipment. Those look more like skid racks, which would be total overkill for tanks. You might get a deal on skid racks if you find a warehouse shutting down, hope you have high ceilings!

We user the same thing in our store room at work. Ours specs at 500kg safe load per shelf bay.

It is a bit overkill for tanks.

some beams similar to that have upto 5 tons per pair of horizontals.

what size tank re you planning here? wouldnt it be cheaper and easier to gets oemone to weld you some steel box section together?

well a 75 gallon US or a maybe 110 us depending upon the prices of the tanks.
But i now it is over kill but I found a place that sells them for like $150. and they come in 4 foot high sections which would bet perfect. Plsy they have racks where you can add plywood atop thick cross beams.

ive seen it

it had 3 shelves, each with a fish tank taking up all the space...

but looks to flimsy for my liking

You have never worked in a warehouse before have you? At mine they are sky high with tons of stuff. I was just curious as to if it was affordable or good for tanks in a stand alone single rack.

but it looks like $150 to $200 would be the price. Not bad. I think it would be easier to deal with thank wood.
