Future plans

[jespenguin]

So after much deliberation, I want a saltwater. But I'm a go big or go home kinda girl, so I want the biggest tank I can get!

Here's the catch, for 500$ I can get my own mobile home and never have to pay rent again! Cheap living is always best when your a college kid! So my question is what is the biggest sized tank you would feel comfortable putting on a trailer floor? Or I've heard of people bracing their floors to support big tanks, good idea or bad?

Thoughts/opinions?

It depends on what kinda trailer were talking about. And what the floors are made out of

 

[jespenguin]

2x4's on the trailer frame and the 1/2 inch board on top.

I think u will be limited to the size u can go with unless u reinforce under the tank.

Well. You can always put a HUGE tank were the steel frame part is(if you have it)

 

[jespenguin]

I'll have to check to see if there is a steel

 

[jespenguin]

Brace, if not I'll have to check into bracing. At least it's easily accessible under there. Plus I'm looking at 125's that's my goal at least.

What year is the trailer. 95% of all trailers have steel frames in the middle because that's how they are moved

 

[jespenguin]

Late 70's early 80's not 100% off hand.

I'm gonna almost guarantee there is a steel frame through the middle
