1 gallon wieghs about 8 pounds. Thats not including the tank and other accessories. I wouldnt risk the 2nd floor, think of what damage it can do, but ive seen 125 on a second floor in a apartment running.
Well it might be a little less because my 300 gal was about that weight filled and i had it on the 2nd floor but
a gal of water is 8.33 * 265gals = 2207 + the weight of the tank about 350 to 450 depending on the thickness of the glass and prob about 60 lbs of rocks it can get to 2700lbs +
