Floor - To brace or not to brace??

[denny_C]

Like I said little buddy you'll be fine I've seen worse for sure


Really like Steve's idea of fixing stand to the wall behind the tank that's actually genius

Unless its concrete I think all floors have bounce to them , if your worried about your joist you could stitch another on there and add some cross bracing but I don't see any issues with the way it is right now.

thanks for all the replies guys. I think im going to try and add another joist in between the black ABS and the HVAC so there are two beneath the tank just for piece of mind. i don't doubt that it will hold the weight the way it is now but i do have gatherings over from time to time and id rather not see the tank rocking under any added weight
