Reefer S 850 stand wobble?

[gobeach]

My new Reefer s 850 was delivered by my LFS yesterday. I noticed a bit of give end-to-end when I wiggle the tank from the end. The tank is empty now, the sand, rock, and water are being delivered tomorrow but I’m a bit nervous about the ‘give’. It’s not super wobbly but it’s not as solid as the wood stands I’m used to.

The LFS guys said that it’d be fine and that once the water is in it it’d be held down?

Anyone else have a big Reefer s with the same experience?

i would call red sea, i would think that stand should be solid.

I think we figured it out - I didn't want the back panels on the stand to allow for more airflow, but seems like they provide lateral stability for the tank... will put them on and I suspect that my problem will be solved.

you should be ok, they will reinforce it.
