Tank is a 4' x 3' 180 gal on a main floor above a basement all in about 1900lbs... would be on 3 parallel joists that span 8' between a engineered beam and a tripled 2 x 10 beam. the tank will be sitting 8" away from the wall which is a form wall.

Oh yeah no worries, a 4 ft tank on 3 joists which only span 8'. Sounds like lots to me so I wouldn't sweat it. I've setup and seen bigger tanks on less.
