I am not sure about the kit. i think it is, but the stand didnt come w/it. It is wood on the stand though, just so the middle of the tank would have support.
And yes, the stand is a bit off balance, because my house is of ballance, because its old, but my dad is a builder, he builds large houses for rich people in a near by town, so I assume he knows what he is doing, and he made the stand level.
