New tank stand and Tank help!

[corey.nolta]

I just got done building my stand frame for my 250dd. Got the tank up on the stand....lo and behold, there are some gaps in a few spots. The gaps are MINISCULE... 1/8" if not less. Everything is sturdy and dang near completely level.

Will the gaps cause me trouble down the road by stressing the glass? Or will I be okay?

If there are small gaps get a sheet of styrofoam (I like the foam boards that are used for presentations.) and put it under the entire perimeter of the tank. The foam will help even out the pressure.

If the gaps are truly less than an 1/8" I would just break out the elbow grease and sand that puppy down. And by elbow grease, I mean a palm sander :p
