I would agree this should be no problem.

I have a 300 gallon tank on a similar floor but it's near a concrete load bearing basement wall.

That appears to be a load bearing wall you've got it near, right? It looks like it would be fine to me too. I would have someone watch underneith while it's being filled up and watch it for a few months for sagging. If anything would happen to it it would probably happen over time.

Definitely not!!!
So play it safe and just send that tank to me...

You should be fine, especially if the tank is run across, rather than parallel to the floor joists.
