proper level of tank

[allykahn]

Quick question,
I leveled my tank (on carpet), but after I added the water, it is off about 3/8 to 1/4. The left side drains better than the other but is this because of the level being off? The right overflow has a longer run (90 elbow that goes to the skimmer chamber while the left is straight. Could this be the problem? I have drained this monster once into containers and I want to be sure before I drain it again.

Thanks
A

empty the water and relevel it. it will save you from having trouble later.
what i do when leveling a tank that is better than any level you can use is, fill the tank to the top of the bottom plastic brace(about an inch) and level it till the water is the same height on the brace on all four corners.

Thanks Clord,
I built it for all the new DIY's out there, I'll be adding a ton of new stuff in the coming months.
