I 40 breeder finally started leaking on the bottom corner after 10 years and 4 moves I'm looking for a quick replacement ( obviously not someone's piece of junk) I have livestock temporarily holding in another tank...
I wouldn't trust that one bit. that's is just a pancake of 3 2 by12 with prob 10,000 nails in it. plus that is the load wall that looks that its in the middle of your home from the pic .also those look like 2by10 not 2by8 floor joist but as normal what do I know I only build foundations.
yes the awc does change the load on what type of wood is used. yes is "dead load" but when you take out water/ work around tank. the load is now "live" there is movement in load being transferred into the beam. (floor bouncing) I never said this is 100% rite without seeing how his home is...
look on engineergtoolbox.com or awc.com floor joist span I would just copy and paste the link but nj reefers doesn't let me paste of post links for some reason
live load 40lb pr sq ft rating for 2by8 16center
3by3 tank is 9sq foot 90gal = 747lbs
747/9=83lbs pr sqft.
like the posts say...
does not hold water started to leak. stand is good still not beat up at all. need this gone today. non reef ready. pick up only 08824 stand goes with the tank
some pics from last night. I moved the rock around a little bit now im happy with it. So far no problems. I keep doing 3 red cups a day water change every 2 days. the green stylo came from the underside of the mother so this will be a test to see how/if things color up.
