Honest opinions only

So I did something crazy. I put a piece of 1 inch wood under tank to support the whole tank especially front glass. I keep being told the front glass is the issue. It looks ugly at the moment but if this holds, I will make it flush to glass and put some type of decorative molding. I am adding 15 gallons of water a day and letting it sit to see anything goes wrong. I’m crossing my fingers. Any thoughts? I got a quote for a custom water box tank but it’s out of my budget ($1500). I really want to make this work. I don’t like giving up lol.

Status update for the curious?

Some bubbles went away. No signs of seals failing. I have 3 fishes rock and coral. Front seal shows zero signs of stress. I check multiple times a day and going great so far. I’ll upload a photo I’m a few.
