Laminate flooring

[FF MkII]

Will a 300L tank be ok on laminate flooring? the actual floorboards are not a problem but might be switching from carpet to laminate soon and i dont want the tank to crush any laminate i have down. Anyone else have it under their tanks? Any precautions i should take? cheers

I had a 300L on laminate floor for some years with no issues you just need to make sure any spilt water gets wiped up

Both my tanks are on laminate floors(one of them is 262L), they are fine so far for 3-4 years

I will soon be building a fishroom and was going to do a laminate floor but I'm thinking tiles would be better. The water spillage concerns me.

A piece of Lino (linoleum) is good for a fish room floor, not slippy and hard like tiles can be, plus lino is easily replaced with a new piece when it is worn.
