Question for everyone who has their stand on solid surface floors.

I got my order yesterday and put the stand together last night. With all the feet that are on the cross braces under the stand how do you level it? The only solution I can imagine is to set all the center feet to the same level so the outer feet aren't touching and make sure it's level then adjust the outer feet.
 
Ok...how the hell do I level this stand??? I used to work construction by trade but there has got to be a better way, Waterbox. Making things worse, my wood-look floor tile is the style that had grooves and divots so it’s not a completely smooth surface. I’m tempted leave it as it is to avoid the aggravation.

It took quite a while and a lot of patience. I started with all of the feet screwed in all the way. I adjusted the 4 corners first to get the tank level in all directions. Next adjust the rest of the feet around the outside until they're snug. I'll never understand why they put adjustable feet underneath where you can't get to them.
