Is taking it back and going with a metal stand an option?

yes, if you can find one that can plant its feet around the bump without problems.

Well... probably not. I ordered it from Petco and got free shipping on it to save gas as the nearest Petco is like 70 miles from me.

Wife got home and is ok with where I have it now so I guess I can say problem is solved.

Thanks for everyone's input and I am sure I will have many more things to ask once I get it all completely setup and start cycling it and adding fish down the road

Glad you got it worked out. I was sure you would find a solution. Keep us posted on your progress.

Thanks....

Hoping to get it all going tomorrow...Went looking today to find some pure ammonia to start my fishless cycle but no luck...I guess I may have to find a different way to get it going....went to a place that has Bio-Spira but I couldnt justify the $28 price tag on it for enough to start my 55g
