    Thanks. I will definitely let you know what I decide. I'm going to see what I can do about moving the stand this weekend since I have a scheduled water change any way. I'm also going to look into these algea scrubbers.

    If you try to move it, push the stand from the base, like where it touches your floor. I have heard horror stories of people pushing even from 4" from the floor and breaking the stand and the tank came crashing down. I've had to move my 20G a couple times when I had to do work on my fuge. It's not a fun task at all.

    Thanks for the heads up. I'm definetly not looking forward to the task. I only need about 1" maybe less of breathing room to hang whatever I want back there.
