45g of water at 8.5 pounds per gallon: 382.5 pounds
Tank itself with stand: Maybe 60 pounds (Totally making this number up, all I know is I can carry the tank by myself so it can't be that heavy)
Sand and rock 75 pounds roughly
Total: 517 pounds, lets round up and say 550 pounds
On a couch you have 3 guys at 183 pounds average, then add in the weight of the couch. Do you ever worry about crashing down into the apartment below you? Think about how much your fridge weighs.
You bring up some very good points! Definetly setting my mind at ease. Come on 5oclock!
