Hello everyone i just finished filling my aquarium up and really didn't even think about level till i finished 🤦*♂️, side to side the tank is perfectly level but front to back is a bit of, probably note even an 1/8 of an inch, should i be concerned about this? My tank is a 75 gallong rimless, i'll post some of the pics of the level. Man i don't wanna take this thing down lol. Pics are both sides

If it runs to your liking....let it be.

It's good it's not side to side. Seeing an off waterline would drive me batty.
 
If it doesn't bother you and the overflow drains properly,etc... then just leave it..Not a problem at all..
 
I agree that from a structural standpoint it is almost certainly fine. That being said, it would drive me batty and I'd fix it, especially since it's a brand new setup. What I would do is drain most of the water out into a brute can or two, leaving a few inches in the tank. Use that water as your level. Measure from the top of the stand to the water level in all four corners and shim it until its right.

But that's me. I was bummed because one of the matching cherry desks I built for our office/study is almost 1/64" off from the other. But I've learned to live with it!?:hmm4:
 
Thanks everyone, yeah it really doesn't bother me much that it stays like that, probably i'm gonna be the only one that notice it really. My concern was that i get one day to my apt and this things is leaking:worried:...but thank u for the answers really help a lot.
