it would depend on whether the tank is made of glass or acrylic...... but the water alone would tip the scales at around 1200+ pounds.... if it is glass.... just round it up to about 1500 pounds. water weighs about 8.3 pounds per gallon.... i just use 8 and round up a little on the final answer. as a note....acrylic is 1/2 the weight of glass and twice the strength. all of the larger custome systems are made of acrylics. steve **************** BUT THAT CAN'T BE RIGHT. Because 8.3 pounds per gallon, which is correct, at 50 gallons is - 8.3 pounds x 50 gallons. So that's only 415 pounds 'water alone.'
