Prospective tenant w/ large aquarium-opinions?

Happy Thursday, BP Nation!

The lease on my small rental property in Northern Virginia is about to be up and my property management company is screening new tenants. They sent me one that is otherwise qualified, but has a 200 gallon saltwater aquarium weighing approximately 1750lbs. The pro, according to the property management company, is that moving such a beast is a huge pain so they may be willing to stay for a while. The cons are fairly obvious, including crushing most flooring (this property has tile in the kitchen & bathroom and laminate flooring everywhere else).

Ready...set...thoughts!
