So i just set a a 75 gal in my basement. I think the floor may be uneven because one side of the tank is about a 3rd of an inch higher than the other. Is this a big deal? Will I have to change it?
 
I don't see it really effecting anything unless your like me and it's going to bother you when you see it. Can always use a level and throw something under the legs to level it out like mentioned above.
 
ive had 3 diff tanks in my room and they all leqn the same way so i know my floor is a little uneven. ive had zero problems. if the tanks straining then thats another thing
 
i'm not sure how to tell if the tank is straining or not, can you tell me? also, i just noticed that the difference between the water levels of the two front corners is about 1cm, but the dustance between the water level of diagonal corners of the tank is about an inch. Any ideas
 
Just get some shims and balance it out. You will need a leveler. You can leave it like that but I think you will be a lot happier if it was set up right.
