Deep Blue 75 Gallon Rimless

[gvanwhy]

I purchased a Deep Blue 75 gallon rimless tank yesterday and realized that once i put it on my stand (which is perfectly level) the plastic black brace on the bottom of the tank was flush against the stand on the right side but gradually lifted up an 1/8 inch from the center of the tank to the left side. Im not sure if this is just the brace since the top and sides of the tank are completely level. would the brace settle into position once i fill the tank or am i looking at a leak in the future. has anyone else had this problem. see the attached photos. the fourth picture shows that the stand is level on the left side

ouch!!! can you take it back? If not you might want to use a 1" styrofoam on the bottom. Good luck....btw, very nice stand there.

They actually said they would replace i but just wanted to see if it would settle once filled. Thanks about the stand I built it

If you can exchange it I would definitely do it.

You sure it's the tank and not the stand.

Figured it out. I put those felt moving pads under the stand when i was building it which made the stand slightly unlevel. I just shimmed it with ez shims (plastic shims) now everything is perfect. Thanks for the input guys. Mods please close thread
