Tank overhanging stand

[cooperdude916]

I just got a Fijicube tank and stand combo and I got it all built yesterday. I noticed that the front edge of the tank isn't flush with the top of the stand. Is this something I should be concerned about or should it be fine? I've seen people talk about the waterbox and red sea tanks being the same way but I haven't been able to find much info about it.

Waterbox has the same design, 1/2-3/4" of the tank overhangs the front of the stands where the doors are.

Okay so I'd imagine it should be fine then. The tank seems to have pretty thick glass for being just a 32 gallon so I'd imagine that helps support it too.

Yes the way its been described to me is the load forces are distributed through the bottom glass to the stand. Having a small section overhang is no big deal even less so with the bottoms of the side or front panels because the load stress on those parts of the tank glass is outward not down.
