Resolved Question: Can my floor support my aquarium?
I live in a first floor maisonette. I'd like to set up a 330 litre aquarium with 60 litre sump. I'm putting it in the corner of my living room. My house adjoins the house next door, between there is a walkway. so, it is my assumption that this corner of my living room is directly over the top of a load bearing brick wall, but I cant be certain.
The weight of the system will be approximately 1200lbs. This is an estimate based on 800lbs of sea water, a heavy 36x24x24inch glass tank which i estimate to weigh 150lbs. To it, I will add 40kg of live rock.There will be a sump made of acrylic which I have not finished designing yet. This will all sit on a relatively light weight custom built cabinet. The weight will be distributed over 36x27 rectangular base of 70x70mm timber.
Does this sound doable to you?thanks for the prompt answers, regarding the house, its a cottage built in 1904 so not exactly modern building which is my only concern, but between the adjoining cottage, theres a walkway probably made for horses or whatnot, so i belive this corner of the house extends 2 feet over that walkway. I can only assume that the wall beside the walkway is made to support the house above meaning that this aquarium *should* be squarely placed atop that brick wall... if i've measured things right :)
