A U.S. gallon (determined by fluid volume at 72 deg. F, at sea level) of
fresh water weighs exactly 8.3452641 lbs.

180 gallons weighs 1502 lbs

Plus weight of tank = X

Assuming you don't have nothing but tank and water.

Just for reference an All Glass 180 weighs about 338lbs empty and 2100lbs
full of water. It should give you a "Ball Park" estimate

Oceanic tanks tend to be made with thicker glass, so I would
expect it will be slightly more than 350lb, maybe 400lb...
