The warranty for my 125 gallong tank says it is null and void if the tank is
not placed on a proper stand, which in turn is placed on a flat and level
surface. I don't think a slight variation is a problem as long as the floor
is flat but my understanding is that it *does* place additional stress on
the tank.

And no, there is no way to move a tank with risking damage other than
*completely* emptying it first.

i just moved my 125 gallon fish tank (not fun) into my sunroom. after the
water was in, i noticed the water is about a half inch higher on one side

than
the other, and i took a level and found out the sunroom is not quite

level. my
first question is will this imperfection jeopardize the structure of the
tank/stand? i dont want 125 gallons of water in the sunroom! i can live

with
the imperfection if it doesnt mess anything up

also, short of draining the tank and puting something down to prop up one

end,
is there any other way to make the tank level? thanks
