I have the 14g level enough on just the aps stand with foot pads no shims. I was just about to test fill the tank and I noticed the front two corners of the tank were slightly elevated off the top of the stand. As innovative tanks do it has the leveling mat attached to the base of the tank.

wondering if I should get plywood cut to fit the bottom? Or maybe the mat will compress enough to support the weight evenly?
please help, thank you guys

included in the pictures is the back corner of the tank witch to me seems fine. Please let me know.

one picture is marked to show how far back the lifted portion goes

It looks like in the photos that the gap is 1\8" of smaller. I personally would feel safe slowing filling the tank and watching for bowing. I think that the foam put would make up something that small.
I’m really hoping that’s the case, thank you for the hasty response. I added another picture to show how far back the lift goes btw
