As the title states...I was wondering if it's safe to leave empty glass tanks outdoors over the winter. It snows here and drops well below 0C on some occasions. Not too sure if it would risk cracking in the panels or the frame.
 
Personally I wouldn't chance it, cracked glass and seal problems too with varying temps (if in the sun) etc.

Stack them inside with water and fish like they were intended ;) (I know your trying to store them, I'm just trying to make you feel guilty:D)

Like Dr. Joe said, it's not worth the risk. Too many opportunities for damage. Depending on how cold, the glass might get brittle, the silicone might get damaged and something or someone might crack it. Just give me the tank, I will take care of it!!!:grinno: The Doctor.
