I was just wondering how many of you have large aquariums (100 gallons +) in a mobile home. I was looking at a waterbox 130 but I am worried about that all that weight. Do any of you have any large tanks without any issues?

Thanks is advance
 
I seen posts where people got big tanks but they did reinforce the floor below.

I’ve read many posts some say they’ve had 200 gal without support others say support is needed on anything above 100 so idk. Better to be save than sorry but just checking out what people here have to say.
 
You don't need a Structural Engineer to tell you 1,000 lbs+ should have adequate support...if the floor becomes uneven over time, the stress on your tank could trigger a blowout.
