you both were right about a couple things. It looks like i will need a center post on the stand. Today, now on my third fill test, i got the tank about 2/3 full and noticed the double 2x4 beam deflecting in the middle, leaving about an 1/8" gap at center between the tank and stand.
This couldve been exacerbating the leak issue before, as it appears that the four corner posts are indeed caving inwards once i get about 250-300 gallons on.
I will now have to drain and reconfigure the sumps and reinforce the stand i suppose, but at least i caught this issue before testing any further. If i work all day i could probably have it back into action by tomorrow.
