Tank to unlevel?

[fareforce]

I have a 55 gal tank that I went to fill up tonight, and once I got it full I checked to see how level it was. Side to side is perfect, but back to front is off a little. The front is approx 1/8" to 1/4" (at max) lower then the back. Because I live in an earthquake prone area my tank stand is bolted to the wall, and it will be a pain to remove the water, unbolt it, and shim it. Is it to unlevel to continue, or will it be fine?

i wouldnt worry about it, but. if you still dont have water in it. you may want to put a styrofoam sheet under your tank to help level it out just to be sure...

The is water in it now.. I did put down weather stripping foam first though. It is more incase there was any pressure points.

Just wanted to make it would be okay.. I measured how far it is off, and it is just shy of 3/16" off fromnt to back..

Ya the tank should be fine. If it really bothers you then you will need to drain it and shim it some way to get it level. If it doesn't bother you then just leave it. It is not off far enough to really hurt anything.

Do you know if it is the tank that is off or could it be that the stand is off? Use a level and see which on it is.
