It is made of wood. I think I will sand down the top until the to ends touch better,

it was about half full. There was no substrate or anything in there. I just put the tank on to do a leak test. But then I saw the gaps and was concerned.

As I under stand it. Just the corners supports the pressure. SO if there is a gap in the center of the stand would that cause any issues? Sorry to ask so many questions on this I just want to make sure everything is right, before adding anything.

Thank you all for the suggestions!

Sorry I fixed my post

Hello, I built my own stand and I have leveling problem. 2 of the 4 corners on my rimmed 75 are not flat. It is not a large gap, but I am still concerned with it breaking a seal. Am I able to use something like hardie board (cement board) and shims under the tank to level or does it need to be plywood? I just have leftover board to use but I am unable to get ply wood right now.

I hope so. I added a bit or filtration and an air stone. I cant tell if the plants are growing or dying so I don't know if that is a factor or not.

Hello, My name is Kyle. Very new to the hobby I have been doing this for about 2 months. It has been so exciting I recently got into planting in my 20g. I have 2 Dwarf Gouramis, 4 Zebra Danios (short fin), 4 Emerald Corys, 2 Nerite Snails and 2 Otocinclus. I have been having some trouble with cloudy water. This happened after adding the plants, so I am working clearing that up now. I am excited to part of such a cool community!
