Getting ready to order a new Cade 1500 reef and am pretty sure my floor is up to the task but thought I’d throw it out for opinions

total water volume about 180gal, tank stand and sump about 800lbs I think.
59” tank.
Would be placed on an interior load bearing wall perpendicular to the floor joists. Joists are 2x10’s. Hardwood red oak floors, home built in 2005. Room is 18x24. Piers are spaced 6 feet apart on center under the wall I plan to place the tank against.
Thoughts?

All the people in colorado say until it gets over 250 gallons they rarely worry about it. Take it for what it's worth.
