I have my 180G sitting in my garage until my basement is ready to move it down there. Temps in Ohio right now are around 20 degrees. Will this have any impact on the seals, glass or anything else? Will be moving down in two weeks.
 
I dont think so, as long as there 's not freezing water in it, and i doubt there is... speaking form experience I had 2- 40br a 20L and a 10 that I had in the barn in a wyoming winter they are holding water just fine.
never thought about it really...curious that others say.
 
Yeah, the key is to not have any water in them. If dry, I’ve never had any problems.
 
Shouldn’t hurt as long as it is dry. I’ve stored tanks in barns in both northern Wisconsin and Wyoming.
 
better flip it UPSIDE DOWN so the bottom glass keeps pressure on all the seals. especially if storing medium to long term
 
No water in it. Brand new. Thanks, I will sleep better!
