    Yep love my visions but the warping in the larger models is a real issue just something to watch for. You won't see it though in the smaller tanks

    Any way to prevent it?

    Using homemade racks to hold them or making metal internal framing is the only way

    So they sag from stacking them directly on top of each other? I just got two 632s and with how much I spent on em I definitely don't want them sagging. Lol

    Yeah ultimately it warps the bottom and forms a rise. Then the doors kind of sag and the glass gets hard to put in and out

    Yea what Cody said, everything I've seen says you definitely don't want them just sitting on top of eachother! :)

    What I have been trying out with mine is doing a wood frame between them to distrubute the weight along the outer edges and try to stop the sagging in the middle. Now mine aren't the 6 footers, but it seems to be working well so far. 6 Months with no sag.

    Thanks this is what the motley gene does aside from shifting the side pattern to nothing :)
