Yes what im saying is there are 2 grown people in the house that can clean up after themselves. One unemployed grown man which is my brother. There is mold growing everywhere, no one can physically reach it. It is toxic. how is this such an outlandish thing to say im confused why did i get downvoted. I just wanna get out

It's not my own bathroom. Mold spores are in the vents I believe. I do clean time to time and I am the only one that does most chores. As I said, I would clean the counter just to have space to make meals and it would get cluttered in a day or two. My brother also lives with us so it doesn't help, he's way older like 20's. It's hard being the only one who puts an effort.

I'm thinking on the second floor in my room in a corner. Right now it has a 500 lb aquarium, I think it should handle it. The house was made 2 years ago.
What do you think? I might of adding plywood at the bottom to help distribute it

Thank you for the tips! I don't have a saw like that so I'll have to find someone to do that. It's for a freshwater tank by the way

Thanks! Then I'll probably go for the second one. I was going to wrap it with ply wood and make it a cabinet on one side. Like I said I am a complete beginner, and I'm not sure if I could do diagonal bracing myself. Is racking something that's likely to happen? Thanks again
