Question Stand for three 75 gallon

I would like to know if ne one here knows of some who can build a stand that would be able to hold 3 75 gallon tanks measuring 48 x 18 x 20. If yes about how much would it run for.The tanks will not hold water. I also need space for lights, and if possibe for it to be able break apart in order to bring in into my home. Any help would be greatly appreciated. something like the pic but with three tanks.They sell with 2 tanks and lights but i dont need all of that.

Two 75 gallon tanks combined would equal about 1700lbs when the rocks, water, and sand are added in. You would have to be very brave to allow them to sit on another tank. Maybe that is why they don't make it. I think it is just too much weight for a tank to handle.

If it's not going to hold water that would be pretty easy.. What type of wood are you looking for and do you need to access each tank through the level breaks or not???

I would just buy that stand, add another tank on top and build a canopy with a similar style.
