Heya guys .... call it improper planning or plain ignorance ... but i m in a fix! I need to add the new Remora skimmer to my tank ... easy but one problem ... there is not enough space between the wall and the rear of the tank! ... so how do i move it? ... i can remem threads saying "NEVER MOVE A TANK" but now i have to work against it ... can anyone tell me the best guidelines to minimize the risk or cracking the tank?
1. The tank needs to be moved 2 inches
2. Tank is 45 gallon (1.2 metre wide) acrylic tank. (4 month old/ curved front)
3. 6 fishes and few pieces of rocks.
4. Strong wooden cabinet with plain base (no legs/flat)
5. House flooring - smooth tiles.
There is no room to put the skimmer at the sides. Will appreciate if u take the time to guide me on this (also it will be helpful if you mention if you have tried doing the same on your tank with the same/more gallons)
thanks,
