managed to drain about 75% of the water then drag it to the other side of the room, looks sooo much better in its new location. now i can sit and eat my dinner looking at my fish!

good job - tank is looking great as well!

One downside - you will now be constantly distracted when others are talking at you during dinner - as my wife keeps pointing out to me.

Why does the tank not sit flush with stand? it a juewl 300?

is that a RIO300? I moved mine 15ft across my front room when it was full. Not advisable at all and it got a bit scary getting from the carpet to the wooden flooring

looks like it has a sheet of poly under it, which isnt needed.

The bottom of the tank sits in a plastic tray with no middle. So the glass in the middle of the tank doesnt touch the stand. There are in fact screw heads sticking out the top of the stand.

I have my tank a couple foot besides the TV. It makes a welcome change to watching the crap that seems to be on these days.

Also I have turned the radiator off so I will freeze in winter but the fish won't boil lol
