Yes which has nothing to due with the tank being level, if it's properly supported and the glass is ground flat or placed on the outside that type of failure won't happen even if you're out by an inch.

Out by a inch? If your tank is out by a inch it WILL break even if its perfectly made... Its just a matter of time...
Ive seen many broken tanks and even seen acrylic tanks that cracked being out of level
