# of live rock in a 125 gallon

Right now I have 100 pounds of life rock in a 125 gallon all glass aquarium. I want to add about 50 pounds more. Is it safe for a 125 gallon to hold 150 pounds of rock plus all the sand? It scares the crap out of me to think that all that is only held up by 1/2" glass.
