flooring

probably just unfinished hardwood

I have 150 yo house and a 265 across 8 beams, I have a secondary support structure but that mainly so the house creaking doesn't have me running down stairs. First make sure the tank is along and external wall. Then check for level on the top of the tank with the tank empty. Fill the tank and watch the level while you do it. If it moves more that a few degrees you may need to reinforce the floor.

It's probably Oak timbers. You are most likely fine but to avoid any unneeded conflict check for tilt.

that was to andy. the tank is leveled, so thats good ( used a leveler )

 

[livebearerfreak]

Ok if it started level and there is no appreciable tilt away from the walls you are fine.

the bubble of the leveler isnt all the way in the middle but most of it is

the tank sits on 3 or so beams and its at a diagnal so its not agust the wall.
