Merlin....it was designed for a 1500 pound dead load, and the fish tank with water and decor weighs about 1300-1400 pounds, but just in case (since im a CIVIL Engineer, not a structural...) i had the Structural Engineer here at our Firm check over my calcs, and he okay'ed them, and we must have done something right since we didnt hear one crack, crick or creak when filling up the tank....lol...
