so i want to drain my 180 and move it on the stand and slide on tiles would this be ok our not . im gonna move it like three feet away from the wall so i can paint it .
no its a baby blue and it drives me nuts . i have to scrape the blue of then paint it black butt i want to move the stand and tank together like three feet but don't know if its ok^^^^ there ya go.
Just paint three sides. What color are you painting it ? Its black now ...correct ? leaving the back black is okay ...not like its pink or anythig like that
....OMG I could be in trouble with the member that LOVES PINK .

Is it time to introduce another member to the magic four wheeler, Bill?With out looking at the stand is built, I would say No ! As I recall its a store bought one and pretty much made to hold the tank up.( not as a wheel-less dolly)
Other things auch as weight of tank as well as any water /substrate. Moving it side ways and such will put a lot of strain on the stand that will in the long run make it a bit weaker.....I can almost hear the creaking and groaning of it now
Why go to the hassle of moving it to paint it ( you cant seee the back anyways ..)
You could slide a large piece off cardboard behind it to protect the wall and use a sponge to get at what you can with some paint.
That would save you a lot of work and be a little less stressfull for everyone.
