I would get my builder to double check on what type of load the floor will take and if extra joists/beams will be required to support the weight

Well I don't have an engineers certificate but where the load is resting is almost directly on a large beam which rests directly on top of a 2X6 load bearing wall. As well there were a few extra TGI floor joists so I had the framer throw them in so where my tank is sitting the joists are about 10" on center.
This should have no problem supporting the weight.
