Has anyone ever used industrial steel heavy duty shelving to support a rack of tanks?

I use racks that are industrial grade which can support i think if i'm not mistaken 2,000lbs+ per shelf if it is leveled and not on wheels.

Ok cool! Mine says 400KG per shelf & 4 shelves, only using first 3 with 3 x 60L tanks on each

I am using a few different shelve's with rating's from 200 pound's to 2000 pound's per shelf most have wire shelving and I have found that adding a piece of plywood under the tank's make's it much more stable . I have 5 30 gallon tank's per shelf on the bigger rack's called muscle rack's . My next shelve's will be 4- 60 gallon per shelf . I will be using 2x10 lumber under those tank's with a rack width of 30" so 9" of overhang but supported by the lumber . I also have 3 rack's 36x16 with a weight capacity of 200 pound's per shelf and put 3 10 gallon's on each shelf 3 high with the tank's lenghtwise . That size also work's great for 20 long's
