65 Marineland 36,18,24 high

I have a stand for this - nicely supports the perimeter - but the stand does not have a front to back bottom center support whereas the aquarium has a brace which is the same plane as the bottom perimeter (talking about the bottom). i.e. 14 inches of the center brace is not being supported

Does my stand need that complete center support?

(some might say the bottom center brace is meant to keep the front and back glass from bowing out at the bottom, just as the top center brace does)

thank you for advice

I went back to the LFS where I bought it - it had been on a stand, which I did not buy - the stand is an exact match to the marineland picture of a stand - so I believe it is a marineland stand - it DID NOT have a center support of the center brace.
