putting it on the floor is going cause it to suck out all your cool air coming in .but on the other hand if your using c02 ,it is a good idea ,would keep co2 in tent .most people hang the can in top were the heat is to exhaust it .if you are have trouble with weight ,get some pvc and build a support in the middle ,you no what i mean like it has 3 walls ,build a square and zip tie it to your supports ,it will keep tent from sucking in.
