I'm ripping up carpet and am planning on replacing it with floating LVP (Luxury vinyl plank). I'll be setting up my Red Sea Reefer 350 in this room, and am concerned if there will be issues with this type of flooring supporting the weight of my system. Does anyone here have larger reef tanks on LVP?
 
I've got my 90 on that style of flooring. The stuff is very dense and should not cause any issues. What is the underneath the LVP? Slab? Wood subfloor?

Good to hear. It's ground level so concrete slab
 
My 80 gallon is sitting on the same, vinyl planks on concrete. No issues at all.
