Tank Weight & Floor Load Calculator
How heavy the finished tank will be, and how hard it presses on your floor.
How this works
Glass weight is the area of the five panes × thickness × 0.0903 lb/in³. Saltwater weighs about 8.55 lb per gallon. Floor load is the total divided by the stand footprint.
Questions
Can my floor hold a 120 gallon tank?
Often yes on a ground floor or concrete. Upstairs or across a long joist span, have someone check it. Running the tank across the joists spreads the load.
Does the stand footprint matter?
Yes. A stand wider than the tank spreads the load, so pounds per square foot go down.
Rather have us dial it in?
