Nice turnout but I'm very iffy about those wheels, there not made to take that type of weight. Hopefully you never have to move it, (full of water that is)
@cichlid62 I agree. I was iffy about them as well. This is the second stand I built, and the first had wheels as well. I am going to build another, but it will not have wheels. I was on pins and needles when I filled the tank for the first time. 125 gallons of water on the floor equals a bad day. The wheels really are pointless, because they are only used when the tank is empty and I need to move the stand. For the peace of mind I could put them on if I need to move the stand.

All together it cost a little under 300$. That includes wood, screws, paint, polycrylic, metal wheels, door handles, hinges, and PVC pipe.
