Laminate under tank

[Ian]

I have a 50 gallon freshwater siting on laminate with no issues at all..even had a few major spills with no ill effects...seems as long as it is installed properly and is of god quality it is fairly safe.

Anyone know how to do a floor while having an established 150g in the room? I want to redo our floor, but not wanting to disassemble the 150g to do it.

When we did the floor in our basement fishroom we used a fairly inexpensive laminate (in case of flood damage) and I didn't put it directly under the sump but saved enough to finish it if we ever move. I siliconed along the baseboards to try and keep water from getting underneath.

It has been holding up really well for 4 years so far with daily water drips and a few mini floods.
