I am a carpenter . By your level it looks good but if you have carpet under the stand it could settle uneven when all water is added to tank .I would cut out carpet under tank if it is there.

So I have finally figured out why this has been a leveling nightmare! The top black rim of the aquarium is unlevel on the right side. I say puzzled wondering what could be the issue! Seems when they installed it they didn’t press down hard enough or what ever the issue may have been. And to top it off the front peice of glass sticks out to the right a bit on the bottom when it meets the side panel. At this point I am really disappointed with Aqueon I always a fan of their tanks. I measured the water levels from front to back on the side and they were the same. I sat puzzled that’s whenI measured the brace and discovered it was unlevel. I have contacted aqueon let’s see what they say[emoji19]

Aqueon aren't known for high quality, but for low cost. I'd tend to doubt they will do anything... I'd guess it'll hold water just fine. There's a reason why many folks opt for higher priced aquarium builders. Sometimes, you get what you pay for.

I have an Aqueon 55g that I use as a sump. It works fine... and was cheap. It's hidden... don't care much what it looks like. My display tank was built by Planet Aquarium.

Ya i am not so much as worried for the looks but the structural integrity of the tank
