Check out www.uline.com. I wonder if they would carry. It's a industrial storage and package handling company

Thanks guys. I will look further in to this.

Also Jsodwi I will contact you soon about building stands. I will still need a separate double stand for the 250gs. I also have an idea about the room I want to run pass you.
 
I was looking into pallet racking which can be bought used reasonably. The biggest issue is that most of the rack systems i have seen are 36 inches deep and a rather large length. If I put a large board over this which would obviously not hold larger tanks such as 125s, 150s and 180s without further supports. If there where cross bars would that work to spread the weight and hold the tanks safely (they do sell these)? If so how close to each other would they have to be? The other thing I was considering was having a frame welded that would sit over the pallet shelf. The frame could have supports built in the length of it to support the tanks. Either of these do able? The other option would be the heavy duty shelving which is very expensive new and the used stuff I have seen has been too beat up.
 
They have cross bars for those racking styles as well as a steel grating. I work for a beverage manufacturer. We use these with a 10 ft span and two cross bars to hold 2 pallets of BIB. That's around 3200 ibs. also some of our lift operators are not the best and put frequent abuse of these stands. I do not see an issue with them supporting a tank or two.

Global industrial had the strongest racks for the best price that I could find back when I was looking.
