Intense vibrations - how will it affect things?

[Sunstar]

Next week is the start of construction on our balconies... intense vibrations. Nothing I can do about it, they are jackhammering

 

What manner of problems might I face?

none as long as the tank doesn't crack. when we play live music that's a bunch of fifteens in my house and the pico bounces, and gets blasted with death metal no harm its just making their ears go bad.

Hahahahaah I was a death metal guitarist in my past lol. Small world. I miss my 5150 and my cab.

Not to derail the thread further but...I'm jealous you even had a 5150, what a killer amp!! I've been dying to get my hands on a 6505...

 

Anyways, how far away is the tank from the balcony?

I had a 20g tank and a 45g turtle tank during major construction at my building. Not only redoing all balconies but a complete redo of the under and above ground parking...jack hammers for 3 mnths.

 

I ran into no issues and back in those days i know my tanks weren't ever leveled or on proper stands.

 

Keep an eye on the tank, make sure your rocks are stable.

I use my bigass amp in the same room, never even considered an issue. Love tubes.

You should throw in a strobe light, fish sized glow sticks, and some fish sized beers. They can have rave!

You want to make sure your rock work is stable. If not, I would expect you might have some move/collapse.
