I want to move my 10 gallon aquarium. I would move it by pushing the tank stand that the aquarium sits on. Does anybody know if it would still break? I would be able to remove about 2 gallons of the water but that’s all. I would be moving it about 3 feet and pushing it around. It is full with water and sand and rock. Any advice? Will it break?

If your only moving it a few feet and it’s 10 gallons then remove half the water , put the plastic moving disc’s on each corner and then slide it to its new location . If you’re on wood or tile you can use a upside down rug to pull it on .

I’ve moved a nearly full 10 gallon freshwater tank by scooting the shelf that it was on across a bedroom and it didn’t break. YMMV
