Well, this should be fun. So with all of the talk about leaking Red Sea tanks getting me good and paranoid, I decided to check the level of my RS250. (54 gallon display) The good news is that the tank is perfectly level side to side, and level on the stand at all four corners.
This model does not have adjustable leveling feet.
However, when I checked the front to back level, it is pretty off. Leaning forward enough that the water level is, I'd say, 1/4" higher at front than it is at the back. This tank has been established for just about three years. No signs of any bubbling in the silicone or anything, but this out of level front to back has me... anxious.
I'd <really> rather not completely remove everything from the display to take care of this. Obviously I know not to attempt with the display full, but considering it is an established SPS tank with a lot of fish, I'd also rather not remove <everything> from the display if possible.
Is there anyway to approach this without taking everything out? Say, draining 75% or so of the water out and carefully jacking up the front of the stand to get shims under it?
