that's two adult males. Can two adult males stand side by side?

The real support comes from the beams (joist) and underflooring that the hardwood is installed on. But, yes. Some individuals weigh over 350 pounds.

Of course. Would you be hesitant to let two 6'5" dudes stand next to each other in your house? A fishtank does have the chance to ruin your hardwood floors though.

I’d be more worried about leaks ruining your hardwood than the weight.

Probably will since your bath tub with water weights a least that much.

yes, they'll hold that much easily. To help, what you should do is make sure there's something hard [like a square of metal] under the legs of the tank to distribute the weight over more than a few square centimeters.
