72 bow second floor

[scubadude]

I am thinking of adding a 72 bow front tank to a second floor. I am wondering if the weight will be too much to put on second floor or am I worried for no reason

I had a 54g corner in my 2nd floor apartment. Now personally I didn't feel I could go larger but I did have folks tell me I could. I think it depends on where you putting it (are there beams near by/under the tank)

The tank will be against the wall and I’m going to build the stand so I can that use 2x4 and 3/4 plywood as a base to spread weight over several joists. I was thinking metal stand but all the weight would be on the 4 corners
