Re: [APD] Aquarium Weight in Apartment

You shouldn't have any problems.  I've had tanks up to 180 gallons on second
floors.  You'll probably see the floor settle under it some, but don't worry
about the floor failing.  As an added piece of advice, I'd suggest checking
with your apartment to make sure they allow larger aquariums, and carrying
renter's insurance that covers you in the even that a flood causes major
damage to the building or unit below you.
