Re-worked rack for viv's

Sid · 02-12-2008, 03:11 AM

The re-done racks are currently setup to hold two 20 gal long tanks or three 10 gal tanks for display. Stored length wise holds three 20 gal and eight tens.
This is the left end of the rack:

The center section:

The right side:

and my "cleanup" area:

cool, Sid
what kind of racks are these?
it looks like the shelving is metal, but the framing is wood?

The shelving is metal bakers racks (68" long x 28" deep) and the front supports are 2x4's with the back side of the shelves screwed directly to the wall. Will be very easy to add onto in the future.

You're very organized there, Sid!

Thanks everybody. As for the room I have..... guess in that way I'm luck that my wife DOES NOT like my hobby. That justified a room of my own, just for the garter collection
