Steve, The basic rating is 260lbs/caster, but from past experience I know they have a built in safety factor and can handle twice as much, at least as a static weight. The weight of the system with 250 gal should exceed 2075lbs. They should be 500 lbs each for this application, but these were the best available at Home Depot. Its a calculated risk at this point but should survive moving it around until I settle on a permanent home for it.

Mike,

Great looking system! What type of wheels did you use? I know my system weighs a Ton, Just wondering how the wheels will do under all the weight.
