well, yesterday i recieved my tank. as i took it out of the box i realized that it doesnt lay flat. the dimension are 47l x 18w x 7.25d. the wobble is about half an inch and i think it comes from a couple boubles on the bottom. is this supposed to be this way. i even tried weight to see if i could get both corners down, but it wont budge.

TenE307<br />Bought an 18 gallon Tempo within the last two years. Shaped somewhat like yours. It laid perfectly flat on the floor, no wobble. <br />Think you have a defect. Call your retailer. <br />Good luck and boat lots. Batavier

i called the company i ordered it from. they told me all long tanks will have some sort of wobble in them. it makes me wonder if he was telling me this to shut me up.

Is this an above deck or below deck tank? If it's a below deck (permanent) poly tank, it should be sitting on 1/2" neoprene rubber anyways.
