Hi all,
I am considering, at some point in the next 1-2 years, moving my tank to a different spot in the same room and onto a different, newly built indestructible stand.
The tank in question is a RedSea Reefer 650 peninsula, about 150 gallons.
I am wondering if the tank could handle the weight/stress of being moved (likely by a bunch of dudes with suctions cups holding the side glass) with about 90-120lbs of live rock and corals still in the tank (no sand, as little water as possible) or if that extra weight would either shatter the bottom (there is a large piece of ABS plastic covering the glass itself) or compromise the side seams?
All my rock work is two island that are epoxied solid and now covered with SPS and removing them from inside the tank might be a headache…
Appreciate any input,
Pete
