Is it more important with a stand on carpet because the carpet could shift the stand.
Leveling aquarium stand on carpet.
Just my opinion from my experience note.
However recently i ve been looking to set up another tank that will be on aquarium stand on carpet and it seems leveling the tank is a big deal for that venture.
Most aquarium specific stands have a flat bottom without legs.
But enjoy my trial and error if.
That s right uneven pressure on the base of your tank.
Should i worry about my aquarium on the bar.
I do not suggest this.
I m setting up a 28 gallon nano cube led on my living room carpet.
I am wondering specifically about some kind of plastic mat plexiglass or wood protector square 3 x3 for the stand to rest on but.
If your aquarium is off a bit because your floor is off a bit you are probably better off without shims at all as long as the level from end to end is less then 1 4 off especially if you re talking about a 4 foot or longer aquarium.
The stand is wood with steel supports on the front two corners.
If the stand is level but the tank is not sitting on it properly then an aquarium leveling mat or sheet of styrofoam may be used to smooth out the irregularities.
To level an aquarium it is best to level the furniture or stand the aquarium is sitting on not the aquarium itself.
Again it is very stable but has the slightest slant.
If your aquarium stand has gaps then a foam mat is going to compress into those gaps.
I would like to try and prevent potential spills and long term damage to the carpet underneath the tank.
Use shims under the stand when needed.
This is not a how to video this is how i had to relevel my 100g tank while its stocke and scaped.
And you know what that means.
