Did you have to reinforce your floor joists?
Ours is on the bare wood, on the advice of our floor finisher. He stated what others have, that any sort of liner or "floor protector" would just trap moisture.
I would just set it up on the hardwood. I have a 155 gallon on my hardwood and it is fine.
Wow great info !! Never thought of using those bags before.Once in place I used inflatable contractors bag to lift and and shim it under.
Good luck
I would be careful using those inflatable bags as a permanent leveling solution. No bags are perfectly sealing (I.e. It's not a matter of if, but when, they slowly deflate, a fully tank, off level a sufficient degree to produce shear in between panels, or even worse, in the glass panel itself, can cause sudden catastrophic failure of your tank!). Also, if you live in a seismically active area, non rigid supports, using a compressible fluid such as air, with a non rigid center of gravity of the loading structure (water in tank) is not a good idea!!!

Those are just to raise the stand so he can add shims underneath.
