Tanks in mobile homes now or had experience?

[pasafire]

I have my 125 in my mobile home and everyone has said it will be fine. I was just wondering if anyone has any tanks larger than a 55 gal in a mobile and if so what adjustments have you made to flooring or supports underneath? We have done nothing yet and I'm just wondering if we should?

I still do....I built my stand out of 1 1/2 thick pine....it measures 5 ft by 28w X 36" tall. it weighs about 350lbs. got a 55 gallon sittin on top, you figure 8 lbs a gallon.., there is 65 lbs of live rock, 30 lbs of Live sand, in the bottom of the stand is a 12 gallon Wet/ dry, and a 30 gallon refugium with LR and LS, ect. altogether...there is a buttload of weight....but it has been there for almost 3 years and is still level.

Ok thats about half of mine.... I'll just pray HAAAAAAAA Did you put anything under it for support? Mines a 125 with stand, and I plan on putting a 40 gal sump underneath....
