Why would I have to be "bitter" because I had hoped for a reef club in the area? It didn't happen, but I can live with that. But joining now with my system going down and 6-7 months left here makes...

I can't quite believe you need to ask? What good would it do on the floor. Also, if the floor is uneven, put styrofoam on it. If it works between the tank and stand, think how much better it will...
