Is My Table Strong Enough?

I recently moved and had to get a quick solution for my 8.5g tank. I purchased a fjallbo IKEA coffee table for my tank, but I’m concerned it won’t be strong enough. I sat on it (I’m around 115lbs) and it held fine, but I could really use another opinion. The frame is steel, the top is solid pine wood. I put it together pretty well, but I’m still not certain if it will hold. What do you guys think? I’m on my phone with no internet so I couldn’t attach a photo.

 

Then how did you post this? Lol

Whenever I try to upload a photo from my phone, I get an error message that it can’t read my file.

 

If it supports 115lbs you should be fine it shouldn’t end up being over 100lbs. The water alone will only weight about 72lbs. With 20lbs of substrate it still wouldn’t be over 100lbs. If you’re really worried you can buy a aquarium mat made to disperse the weight across the table.

 

Can u confirm your tank is 8.5 gallons? Odd size, so just want to be sure you typed it right.
If correct, I think you’re absolutely fine. Top deck/shelf is relatively well supported to avoid torsion or twisting and distributes load to the legs/ supports, and the load is carried vertically to the ground well.
I think you’re good.

 

Oh well have you tryed computer?

 

The shelf unit of that model: Max load/shelf: 75 lb
The TV stand of the model: Max load/shelf: 117 lb

So I'm thinking max supported weight is between the 2, but take it with a grain of salt. Doesn't look bulky enough to hold up 100+ lbs, but then that's me.
