This is such a beautiful tank setup. You can tell you put a lot of thought into it!
It’s on cruise control with the flowerhorns. Only thing bad is it’s in the garage and I don’t really chill in there 😕😢
Wow 6 40 breeders. That looks amazing.
That room looks great can't wait to see the outcome thumbs up
Thank you Mr D!
Holly crap! I had no idea you had all this going on. Pure awesomeness!
H.C. Aqua lol...
Looks great man! So many 40s
It originally was just two stacked lol
looks soo good! loving the koi now!
Thank you Dea! They koi ... i still cant believe they started life as small as an eye lash
It's so fun to do this things in the fishroom.👍😅 I can do this all day !
Brother, your Fishroom is evolving and you too.👍😁 Keep it up Brother.👍😀
Loved the little Koi's also.👍😀
thank you brother. I am trying lol
Nice rack. Now this tempts me in purchasing (6) 30 gallon Breeders for my saltwater setup.
are you going to add a sump to it? sounds like major frag grow out setup
looking forward to seeing what you stock in them
very kool, i might get a stocked shelve system for my aquariums myself... nice work bro...
Fish Keeping Jamaica hi brother, thank you.
irie
looks great 👍
Pond and more thank you!
It's as if that rack was custom made for the 40 breeders. Looks great!!!
NYGOLD thanks! It’s a very tight fit
im soo jealous i wish i had a garage!!!! cool very cool!
Shellshocked Aquatics I originally wanted to build everything in a tuff shed but couldn’t justify spending the money to build it
I love that rack! I'm ganna have to check it out
AQUA FUNK W/ ANGEL FREAK it’s a tight fit but it’s faster than building one
It's coming along just fine bro
Joe Munoz thank you! Next week they will have water
omggggg that's so manyyyy fish tanks!!!
MTS in full affect full👍
lol....
Great fish room!!
My suggestion for all of the empty tanks:
GUPPIES!!!! 😁
Lol I already have tanks full of guppies
@@prolificbreedaquatics you never can have too many guppies!! 😂😁
Awesome video! Love the metal racks. For your shrimp tank, where did you purchase the mesh pre filter that screws into your overflow? That looks very clean!
Found it
QueAquatics 👍🏼 cool I just updated the other video with links as well. Thanks for letting me know
I love that rack. I'm guessing it is rated for the weight you will have. I've been on the fence between buying a rack or building one. Metal looks so clean and neat. Are you going to drill those tanks too?
Wichita Falls Fishkeeper pros and cons to both. I have built shelves which is cheaper but it took me about a week the gather supplies cut and build and paint. Each shelf supposedly supports 1500 lbs. i originally wanted to drill and have the 4 top tanks plumbed to a sump but now I want to keep it simple with HOBs
Do you have any updates on this rack
Hello , How is the rack holding up with the rack? looking to get one aswell !
it holds up but add support in the center and have the tanks sitting on 2x4s
Do you need to put a plywood below the tank and rank?
Shyhhann Ji you don’t need to but it would be better with it. You can use 2x4s on the edge of each tank too. I watched aquarium coop do his warehouse for plants and it’s just sitting on the wire rack
hey i have small 29 gallon tanks, will i be fine i they dont sit on the metal side railings? the tanks arent wide enough.. the tanks will sit on the metal grail
iambryan I would get 2x4s and running across the metal beams. Have the tanks ends sit on the 2x4s
@@prolificbreedaquatics leave the grille under the 2x4 or remove?
iambryan leave them. Watch this video from jadren at around 4:26 you can see how he put his tanks on. ua-cam.com/video/2TUyruzRgEc/v-deo.html
Damn... never knew you have that many tanks bro... whats your plan on the 40gs?
Not even sure lol
Hows it holding up? U think that stand can hold a 125g?
How is this rack holding up long-term?
TerraMagnus it’s good. The new version has more support beams in between. If you have old version I would suggest adding support beams.
kinda looks like theyre sitting on the metal wire mesh instead of the frame. Have you have any issues?
Ryin88 they are sitting on the mesh. I have not had any issues but I would recommend putting boards across and resting the ends of the tanks on the board.
Did this end up working without putting anything under the tanks to support on the rack? I bought one but im hesitant to use it without putting some plywood to even out the weight.
Add the ply wood. It worked for me but I had slight bowing. Others have used 2x4 across to have the ends of the tank test on
@@prolificbreedaquatics thank you!
Awesome video! Im thinking about doing this also but with one 70g tank. How many gallons do you have per shelf?
the tanks are 40 gallon breeders. if you get the 6 foot shelves support the center with 2x4s it will bow
@@prolificbreedaquatics thanks. Will do!
how did it go?
Any update on the rack?
still there but not filled. if you are doing this, I suggest adding center supports
The amazon link says each shelf holds up to 2000 pounds but the home depot link says each shelf can hold up to 2500 pounds... I'm confused, and they're both priced very differently. Are they different shelves or something? Which one do you have?
I got mine from Home Depot
I don’t think that wire shelf holding water weight maybe if tank fit on the frame it’s self
a better way to do this is to add 2x4 where the rim touches on the left and right sides of the tank
Is this rack what you have your 120 gal tanks on? What is the length of those tanks? I’m having issues finding a rack system that I can get my 125s onto. They’re about 1” too long to fit between the uprights..... Any ideas?
Those are six foot tanks. I custom made with the 2x4. If you do build use 2x6 for the base
@@prolificbreedaquatics Thanks fir the quick response! Looks like I’m going to be building racks after all......lol
@@barefootaquatics it’s not too bad. Just takes more time
@@prolificbreedaquatics My main goal with buying commercial shelving is the flexibility in height adjustment. When I build a wooden stand, I’m seldom pleased with the tank height and headroom from top of the tank to the next shelf.
@@barefootaquatics I understand what you’re saying.
Have u reinforced them more? I’m worried the wires will bend. Just got a shelf today
You should add plywood and center brace for assurance.
You should add center brace and 2x4 where the tank edge site. Search jadren aquatics for examples how he reenforced the metal shelf
@@prolificbreedaquatics a plywood sheet on top of each shelf?
@@PANCAKECRAB1 either the plywood or you can do 2x4s running front to back and have the tanks rest on 2x4. The tanks will sit fine on the wire mesh but the center will sag a bit with out the extra support
@@prolificbreedaquatics are yours doing fine? i’m just scared that the bottom of the tanks will crack because the design of the wire mesh are so dumb. only a few of the wires are double wired. but my tanks are sitting on the back and from main metal supports
How's the stand holding up?
Hi Larry, if you go this route add 2x4s under the width of the tank base and vertical support in center. If you just throw on the metal rack u will notice the tank water line not level
What ever happened to this rack?
Still in garage but empty. It’s too expensive to heat the tanks in garage for winter
Any updates on this setup?
I had it going for a couple months before starting the reef tanks. Tanks are empty now. The bottom tanks are a chore to service
prolificbreed I just changed out my double rack to these so I can stack two side by side for a total of 6 also.
csaecha0 add support under the tanks.
What size are the tanks?
These are 40 breeders by aqueon.
ID OF PUT SOME KIND OF BOARD DOWN FIRST.definitely wouldn’t of put any kind of tank straight onto that wire frame 🤷
