I think he means don't fill it with water while it is sitting on the sump 'cus it will bust. Empty it might be ok for a while if you are very careful.

The person before me had used it in a saltwater tank as back up and there were no ill effects. Ok. I need advice on hardy fish and corals good for starters.

If you want shrimp, do not get a longnose hawkfish.

i finally got around to measuring the tanks. their both the same so here it is.
Length: 48"
Height: 16.5"
Width: 20"
Thickness of glass: 2cm

Now do you know if it would be able to support the tank. The back and sides are taller than the rest on both tanks and i'm going to get them cut. Again any suggestions
