Fish tank weight

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Should actually have a ton of space left. Queen beds are 60" x 80" and centered on one wall leaves alot of space left in a 14ft x 14ft room. How long is the dresser? What are the outer dimensions of the corner desk (BTW, pressed wood weighs more than standard pine due to the glue/resin needed to strengthen pressboard). Sounds like the closet is outside the room proper. That should leave a large wall or 2 blank since a large dresser and corner desk can fit easily along one 14ft wall.
 
If you're gonna go + 10 you should just bump up to. 125 gallon. It's 72x 18 x 23. Just a taller tank. I was thinking as far as weight savings. A 100 gallon would weigh approx 200-250lbs less than a 125.

1. What are the dimensions of your dresser, desk, and nightstand

2. Do you have any other tanks or just the 2x20g and 3g listed

3. Oddball is right(once again) cheap pressed wood is much heavier than the real thing. My step-son's cheap dresser weighs much more than my solid oak one does and mine is much bigger.

4. Depending on your room layout you should either have plenty of space or very little, it's amazing how much a little redecoration can open up free space, hence the reason for point #1. Pictures or graphical representations would be extremely helpful.

Interesting I didn't know that.

1 entire wall is blocked for use as the closet doors are their and you walk inside the closet, seperate from the 14'14' footprint. The dresser is 60". Nightstand is 24". Cat pirch is another 2 ft across. Desk is 40" diagonal. But its a corner so that's different. Their are 2 doors right next to each other seperated but a corner.
 
A few odd things...
Desk is incredibly lightweight and extremely unstable. I could lift it with 1 hand and btw I'm twig armed, very weak. It might not be pressed.

Also I have all my houseplants in here;
Money tree
Orchid
Pothos
Bougainvillea
Etc
All are small and on wall mount shelves to conserve space.
 
If you can't get a full room pic then get some graph paper and draw everything out to scale. I know that your room and my step-son's is about the same size, he has a queen size be too, and just the dresser and a night stand. He's had a cat tree and a desk too but never at the same time. Even now without either of those two it would be extremely cramped with my 110 in there, but doable though. With other furniture though it might not work.
