Talk to a builder about installing extra supports for your floors.
My fathers tank is so big, it weighs over a ton! these poorly constructed 'paper mache' NZ houses just cant take the strain!

...was never a problem in UK with 'proper' brick houses and 4 foot deep solid concrete foundations

but again, look under your floor and make sure your tank goes accros several floor joists instead of running along one, and i found a good 3 inches away from the wall, as after time it can crack the join from wall to floor and water can enter... causes all sorts of problems!

Thanks I have plecos that just do not like to keep the plants rooted. they are buggers like that .Have a cool underwater waterfall the bastards keep knoking over so that is destined for bottom tank.

I've put extra piles under my house when I had the 1000 litres on a wooden floor.

Estimated weight was around 1.5-1.7 ton, 350kilos of glass, 1 ton of water, plus gravel etc etc

eight piles under the floor sorted me out tho'

get your self a bottle jack, crawl under the house, jack house up, use wedges to hold piles in place, the drop the house down

oh julie what a bugger, you just get tank sorted for new fish and the bloody floor gives out, can't win.

You can not always win but you can feel good trying.All sorted for now I have moved the tanks.looks like a new lounge and My baby is coming home tomorrow so what else matters now, besides oh never mind.
