Hey guys,
I just got my tank (37 gallons) and a stand from petsmart last night. They are both made from Top Fin. The stand seems very flimsy and doesn't seem like it would support a 37 gallon filled with water, sand, and live rock. It does say it's for 29-37 gallons though. I saw another one that was made for bigger tanks but it's length was a bit longer which would be a very tight squeeze in my room. What are the chances of any damage being done to the stand/tank because of this? Should I try bracing it to the wall for extra support? Could this end up tipping?
