Those stands that you see at revy and home depot, I use those in my fishroom. I bought a 8 foot long x 2 foot wide and 6 long with 2 shelf brackets for 200.00, bet you could get a 4 foot wide for 250.00 and you could park a bus on it.

Or you could just cover the stand with waterproofing epoxy and it would probably cost less then a metal stand.
