So I just acquired a free 180 gallon beauty reef ready with everything but return pump, skimmer, and powerheads.
I will eventually be replacing my 120 with it. I will be painting the stand and trim prior to. Is it ok to let it sit on its back while I am doing the painting and prepping and everything. The bulkheads were pretty locked on and I want to replace them, and it being on its back makes it easier to access as well. Its a flat solid surface, there is also wood trim so no glass touches. Mostly worried about seam pressure.
Also, I will be crawling under to double check placement with my house but if a 120 has been in its spot for 2 years is there any extra precautions I should take to support the extra 60 gallons?
Thanks for any input/advice.
