i live on the 3rd floor apartment. i was wondering if a 135g would be to heavy. has anyone done this?? with a wooden stand how much do you thik total weight would be filled?

It's going to weigh 1400 pounds just the tank and water, after gravel and rock work close to 1600 pounds thats just the tank. I wouldn't do it

Ask your architect or landlord for the structural design and the weight capacity it can cope with.

well i have a 75 in here right now with some good size rocks and a custom made stand that weighs more than a standard oak stand. its been in hear for 5 years with no sag in the floor. its butted right against the wall. i wanted it close for support. i know how much the water weighs, its just everything else!!
