Will The Floor Support For At Least A Couple of Years?

[DiZASTiX]

I'm building a 150 gal aquarium (http://www.scaquariums.com/SCA-150-Gallon-Starfire-Tank-p/sca-150g.htm) over on the third floor of a building. Will it probably hold? I don't know which way the joists run, but there's a set of vents on the floor above that seem to be running perpendicular to the direction I'd like to place the tank. The tank would be placed next to a wall, though unsure if it would be a load-bearing one (it's on the other side of the wall of the kitchen/living room divider.)

I imagine this aquarium will be setup here for around 2-3 years at most.

Consult with a reputable contractor or structural engineer. The direction the vents are running has nothing to do with the joists.

I consulted with structural engineer and ended up putting re enforcement beams under the tank.

Do you have pictures of where the tank will go and the space below it?
