Hi all,
I am fairly new to this hobby (4 months) and learning a lot from here.
I have this 75g aquarium and stand and been making some mistakes here and there, so this stand has some water damages. ATO hose fell from the sump and water also leaked from the pipette.
Is this going to be OK or do I need to do something? I am starting to worry about the stability of this stand.

Bottom and sides look like it got pretty wet, particle board is crap to make a tank stand out of.
Id look to replace the stand for solid plywood if that’s you style or a metal frame with covers…

Last thing you want is the stand to collapse and you hear a big crash….
