90 g on wheels?!?!

Here’s without a doubt the best thing I have ever done to a tank. The stand sits on 1/4” aluminum plate with 14 stationary casters that are rated at 200lbs each. I mounted a homemade bracket for jackscrew and thrust bearings to the studs behind baseboard. Threaded bracket mounted to bottom of plate for the jackscrew. 18” extension with 3/4 socket on cordless drill and I can move the tank 18” from the wall smooth as silk without a ripple. I did all this because the repurposed stand really wasn’t reef tank friendly. Maintenance is a breeze now.

Am I counting 12 casters?

Pretty slick. Good luck with it. It should hold the weight, spread out over 12.

How often are you moving it around?

14 casters. I’ll only move it when l PM the uv sterilizer and clean the ato reservoir. I moved it several times while getting everything set up and it worked perfectly.

Thanks! I will probably build a skirt to hide the hardware to make her happy. She “says” she’s “fine” with it but….lol.
