thinking about moving 220g tank to second floor

[ngheht]

Any thoughts?

The tank will be place along the exterior wall of a townhouse for a more distributed loading. I figure that the 2000lbs or so will span across 3 beams. On paper it sounds like no reinforcements need to be done to the flooring but I would love to hear from the forums if this has been accomplished in real life.

Thanks

What is the span of the floor joists? The closer together the better.

this closer the better but i think you*ll be fine
