Levelness of Tank

[Earthswater]

Is it ok if the tank is not exactly level. My tank leans to the front and right side a bit. I have a 20gal high

20g? Fine... just don't do that when you start getting over 50g.

Id almost bet that not very many of our tanks on this site are completly level. Even after shimming my stand my 150 is not completly level its about an 1/8 inch higher on one side. As long as its not off a lot or making your tank twist you should be fine

My 90g (judging by the water level) is about 1/8-1/4" higher on the right side than the left, I think its about even front to back though. The floor where it sits just isn't level and I didn't think to shim it before I got it set up. So far I'm fine.....

Agreed. I don't think any of my tanks are perfectly level.

A 20 gallon is no problem at all.

You should not let big tanks get over 1/4 out of adjustment. Sometimes they are hard to get virtually perfect.
