Tank weight question

So I am considering upgrading to a Marineland LED 60gal. I have laminent wood flooring in the bedrooms but the rest of the house is painted concrete. Would my floor survive the weight of a 60gal?

Tab...

At most the 60 G tank will be 600 pounds set up and filled. Add a bit for the stand. Just set it up close to an exterior wall and you should be fine. The floor can easily handle this weight.

This is a concrete floor on the foundation? Should handle it easily.

You're fine the wood floor will not get too damaged from the weight of the tank because that stand has wide legs I have the exact same tank/set up great buy
