It made it very lop sided but when the door has a clearance of 34" and your aquarium is 36" you don't have a choice. The 36" tank also limited the height of my stand for the same reason. What is funny is my brother (in the picture) and I moved and set up my 200 10 years ago, he was 41 and I was 39 and we had no problem but now he is 51 and I am almost 50 and we are not as strong, but much smarter and ask for help.
Thanks for the info, I've got a 360G in the garage and I know for certain it weighs around 700 lbs. It too has to turn sideways, was thinking of hiring piano movers but not sure how to get it in the house.
