I find that the easiest way to fix this by cutting a wooden block and attaching it to the back of the stand with the pipes resting and anchored to this block.

I really like that wave maker...
Thanks for that Ginu! I was thinking much the same thing about them being a problem but didnt really know how to tackle it! Thanks for the idea Ill have to look into it, im not to sure how I can do it just yet becuase the tank with be sitting on my desk but the wood block sounds great! thanks very much its greatly appreciated
