man, the water in your tank wieghs over 1000 pounds alone. Pretty sure if the glass can handle that then as long as the 40 lbs isnt forced down on 1 point then you will fine
Woah, did someone just do some math? Yep, 1037 lb to be exact. You rock dude. :headbang2
 
heh, thanks man. I just setup a 125 in my living room so i had to do some math my self
head bang for you too:headbang2
 
:screwy:water is a way diffrent kind of pressure but good to know
 
ive got large rocks with no problem, just make sure the rocks are sitting on gravel, sand or somthing.
 
If your rocks are resting on gravel, it could be forcing a small piece of gravel into the tank bottom (point pressure) and break it. I would be worried about that as well as any fish you might have that like to dig.
 
well back on topic i would be more worried about being struck by lightning. But yeah just get some egg crate and be done with it
