Default How Heavy is too Heavy?

We're looking at houses right now, sure makes me look at the floor joists
more closely. I calculated my tank at 1100lbs min loaded (water, glass, and
gravel). Lucky where I am right now, condo with concrete level floors. I've
always wondered what a mess 90g's of water makes....

Obviously the answer to this question will vary depending on the house
but..... at what point do you all think that a tank is heavy enough to
require added support to the floor (ie: bracing the floor from the
basement?)
