Hi, I am moving my 80g Marineland glass tank for the first time. It's 5 years old, perfectly level and never been empty. The silicone seals look good with the exception of some minor abrasions on the sides due to cleaning the glass. (too much natural light, had some algea problems) Have never had any signs of leaking.
I live in a condo and am very paranoid about leaks. We have just installed new engineered hardwood floors in our new place but more so, worried about a disaster damaging the units below.
To anyone with moving experience--would you recommend getting a new tank? The plan would be 5-7 years in the new place. I am so nervous about water damage and would rather be safe than sorry.
Would appreciate the community's opinion on the matter.
Thanks,

Oh, to complicate matters further--we have an Xbox Kinect so there is fair amount of movement--floor support is concrete slab 8". Tank is within 6 feet of that movement. I feel like I'm playing with fire here.
