Knowing first hand the damage that any tank can cause, I certainly would not blame any landlord for not allowing a tank. As careful as I am, I do spill water on my floor. I am also occasionally cleaning salt water off my walls. Also, we are always hearing how seasoned reefers spill mass quantities of water on their floors. As a landlord, you just don't know because you're not there all the time. You don't know how much water may be spilling or what the tenant might be hiding. Then there's the possibility of electrical+salt water issues. A landlord need only hear ONE of these anecdotes to be convinced that having a tank in a rental property is probably not a good idea.
