Optimal aquarium size and maximum system weight

Please advise on the correct aquarium size if the length is 2m or 1.8m. What kind of aquariums do people have at home? I live in a 16-story panel building, and if I set up a system of up to 2000 liters + a sump of up to 500 liters + rocks, the total weight will be around 3 tons. Will the floor slabs support this on 2 square meters, or should I consult with architects?

Definitely consult with the designers. I have an aquarium that is 1600 x 650 x 700. I would like it to be a bit wider, but deeper is not necessary - it will be poorly illuminated, and it will be difficult to reach into it. It should be placed along the end wall near the support of the ceiling slab. If it's the top floor, it can be partially unloaded onto the upper ceiling slab. However, if the renovation is already done...
