Newbie question....

I just brought a new saltwater setup. On the way home it started raining and the wood stand got wet. Is the integrity of the stand compromised or is it still good?

Depends on what kind of wood it is. Is it MDF? How wet did it get?

[ttran1130]

It was raining when I was hauling it home. I would say 30 mins in the rain. Not sure what wood it's made out of. It's a 215 gal tank.

If the stand is painted just let it dry out for a day or two and take a close look at it to see if it is coming apart anywhere.

Can you post a picture of the stand?

[ttran1130]

Yes it is painted... I will post pics in the morning. Thanks.

It should be ok...

Unless its cheap mdf crap then its probably done for being its a 215 gallon tank its more than likely wood and should be fine
