I stay in the second floor of a concrete building that is 6 floors high. The first floor is the parking lot. I was wondering if I could keep a 300 gallon tank along a wall that has a supporting concrete beam along its length and be ok, ie not have the floor collapse through? Currently I have a 150 gallon and a 90 gallon sitting right next to each other along that wall.

i feel like concrete apartment buildings can handle anything, but the general consensus on this forum whenever someone asks about weight is "contact a professional"

Even concrete buildings have weight loading limits, i live in a concrete jungle, and warehouse buildings have a sign that states how much the floor can hold, and in those cases its usually arounf 500KG+ per sqft or something...
