Wire shelf for smaller tanks?

[Big Jay]

Has anyone tried one of these for just one small tank situated low?

I'm looking to save a little space. I have two crested gecko enclosures (light, housed in plastic tubs) and I'm considering maybe putting a smaller 20 gallon aquarium on the second level from the lowest. The shelf total capacity is listed as 1750 lbs.

To sure up the level with the aquarium i would drill through and bolt the shelf in place along with the collars.

Thoughts? 20 gallon fresh is about 160-175 lbs full.

I think it would hold just fine with ur addition of the bolts, especially on the bottom shelf...but you could just as easily build a 2x4 rack for the same price, unless u already have the shelf. Wire shelf may look nicer also

The issue is more aesthetics. MY girlfriend would have a conniption if i built a 2x4 rack lol.
