Is it possible to peel a uth off the bottom of the tank without damaging it or once you peel one off its preety much done for and you just have to replace it?

You should be able to peel it off and re-use it. Just do it slowly and use a spray adhesive to re-apply it where you need it.

you just have to do it slowly...maybe use a solvent to weaken the glue a bit...i leave the backing on so i can move it around when i need {cleaning etc} so maybe attach it to a backing {after you get it off} to do the same in the future...good luck...
