diy stand --- corner not supported-- thoughts??

[new2natives]

its a 54 corner, pic of stand, base, and the back corner of the tank and stand from below

the tank is not supported in the back corner because i need to run plumbing.
22" of the 27" on each side is supported, as well as the entire front of the tank


thoughts ???

on an unrelated note, once my sump is in place, i am going to add 2 more 2x4s that will run vertically from the front brace to the bottom brace.
so there will be plenty of support up front

and then the whole thing is going to be sheeted with oak and trim, with a large door in front to access all the underworkings

id stick a sheet of ply on top and drill circular holes for the pipes.

water is a kilo a ltr. no sense in chancing it!

i agree with the above post.. i would def use a piece of plywood or something similar maybe some mdf board and cut holes in it and run the piping through it and give it a bit more support.
