Phenomena Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 That's more or less what I did with my pallet racking. The rack is about 80cm wide and my tanks are only 60cm. I put timbers across (every 2ft or so), then plywood on top, and styrofoam. It's been running for the last 7+ years or so... IMHO, as long as the rack is level, strong enough timbers, you should be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
