I'm putting a 150g tank on the main floor of my house. Its parallel to a load bearing wall and sits across 4 floor joists. In order to reinforce the floor, I was planning on sistering the joists. The problem I've run into is I have cross bracing between the joists. Am I better off removing the cross bracing to install the sister joists full length, or should I just reinforce the joists in the area where I have room? I plan to turn the area into an entertainment room, so posts are sub-optimal.
