    I shudder at the thought of that tipping over.. :eek:

    Hey, have you taken level measurments of your tank? As in side ways and front to back.. Its something a lot of people overlook and can really cause trouble down the road.. I suggest it to be safe.. :)

    Yeah, please do.. too much water pressure pushing against a single pane of glass can make it blow out.. to think of 90 gallon wave running through your house is a scary thing.. If its not level you can just add shims to make it even, its not hard, I promise..

    Okay, I'm officially filling up my trash can to make my tank water!! I'm sooo excited! The RO/DI unit is really slow, so I should have the tank half full in like 5 hours. lol But I am excited!!
