oh yeah, for sure i will check it out when i move in.
but now i am pretty sure they are 2x10"s.

even so, i would really like a 225 or 270, with a 135 sump.
so floor upgrades would still be necessary.

any ideas as to what i would need to reinforce this properly?
add 2x10"s to each side of each existing joist that the tank will be on?

well i would definitely have an engineer come by and tell me if it is plausible, if i decide to go with the upgrade.

if i cant go big, then i will go small. <100gallons.

and then who knows what the future holds, maybe in the future i will set up an inwall in the basement, or put an addition on the house, or even just build a new house!
