Tilted tank


Huyey

Recommended Posts

Hi,

just set up my standard 6foot tank but had trouble getting my water to level. Its on a stand thats a five tier rack (from bunnings) and has been converted to fit my 6 foot. The problem is, the stand is in my garage where I found out later that the ground was slightly sloping. I did not notice that my water was not level until I completed filling it up with water. Now one side of the water in my tank is about an inch higher than the other side. Can I keep it this way?

Cheers, :o

I moved my 4*2*2 on the weekend and have noticed that the floor i have it on has about a 1 inch a tilt - :o i plan to level it before i fill it up with water. Also - it is on fairly weak floor boards so i am going to get a piece of wood to put under the tank to spread the load from just the 6 legs on the stand to the entire floor.

Does anyone have any comments on this?

Cheers WW

Thanks everyone for your help. I was just worried it may crack and topple over.

I am emptying my tank now and will put some hardiboards under the legs. That tank is mighty heavy to lift... just thinking of my back :blink: :unsure:

Cheers,

Huy
