Custom 125g Stand …need some help with sliding doors

[55GalGill]

Hey guys,
I have been building a 125gallon stand in my free time for like 5 months. It’s taken me so long partly, because I’m poor and I don’t have much free time I have hit a snag in my process. I Have two sliding doors on two individual tracks. The problem is I cant get the doors to slide smoothly at all. What have you DIY guys done to get your doors to slide effortlessly
I have been to Home Depot but i can find anything useful there like small wheels or bearings? Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

I will see if I can post pics maybe tomorrow or the day after so I can show you my problem

try some wax or some soap, like ivory bar soap
