Aquarium Advice FINatic
i want to keep a 75g tank in my apartment on the 5th floor. i wanted to know if its safe.
i went to talk to the management about this, but the lady in the office was absolutely horrified with the idea. she even wanted me to get rid of all my tanks because the damage the water can cause to the carpets :x . but i'm planning on getting a renter's insurance soon, so i will be keeping them.
so i wanted to know if any of you guys have 75g+ tanks in your apartments and if it was structurally safe. the total weight estimated (with rocks for a malawi biotope) is going to be close to 1000lb. and i'm planning on getting an iron stand for the tank (the cheapest).
