system 70/120 wieghts

[aaronf30]

Does anyone know how much these systems weigh? I'm going to get one of them but getting them up 3 flights of stairs might be too hard. Also what does anyone think about the third floor of a 40 year old apartment being able to support either one of these tanks. I would much rather have the 120

shipping weight on the 70 is about 275 lbs and about 385 on the 120 system. This includes about 75 pounds of pallet and crate so you can subtract that to get the actual system weights when removed from the crate. Both are easy to handle with 2 guys but you might as well have a third just to be safe on the 120. These weights don't include water, which is the heavy part, so you will have to decide on whether the place is appropriate for an aquarium but most buildings should be fine with these relatively small aquariums. Hope that helps.

sorry I should add that saltwater weights about 8.6 lbs per gallon.
