			 How large a tank can I get safely? 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
	
		
		
	
	
	The house is from 1970. The tank is to go perpendicular to 2"x8"joists which are 16" apart. Parallel to the tank, (in the wall) is a beam composed of 4 2"x10" Under one corner (of were the tanks is to be) there is a telescoping support under the beam. This seams strong, but .. The 20 + 15 gallon tanks I have on a 4 legged metal 3/4" square tube stand ripple when a person or dog walks by. Cheers, Kamil  |
