New Aquarium

[Dytto]

Hello guys just wanted to ask a simple question maybe it’s a silly one but I just bought the TMC wave 85L which is 20 or 22 gallons not sure sorry.
My question is this aquarium too heavy I live in the 2nd floor of an apartment building. It’s build from concrete, stell, stucco I have asked Chat GPT and it’s saying that it’s too heavy so I tought I ask here. Please again if it’s wierd question I apologise just want to make sure

Thank you for any answers

You’ll be fine with a 20-22 gallon.

I think you'll be fine too

Salt water is going weigh about 2.26 pounds/Liter, so your 85L tank will weigh about 192 lbs. When you displace some of the water with rocks and sand you have to add a bit more weight, let's just say the whole system when running might be 250 pounds, just estimating. That's like a large person standing in your living room, it should be no issue at all.

I hope that helps and good luck with your new tank!

No issues unless the building is not sound.
