So I just filled my 180 up and I noticed the water level is not even on both sides. There is a 1 inch difference between both sides. My floor is not level.

Obviously I have to do something about this.

What do you guys recommend?

What would/could happen if I left it uneven? Complete disaster?

Thank you for you time,

Tom
 
Wooden shims would do fine and maybe cut in some space for it to dig in.

And yes if you don't it could end in complete disaster.

Thank you so much!

Wooden shims under the stand, right?
 
Buy a level and some wood shims you may have to drain a lot of that water out to get the shims in. Check front to back and side to side for level
 
i used construction pencils worked great for me
 
If you shim a corner, you should also place shims along the edge in the gap that is created so it is supported along the entire length.
 
I had somewhat of this problem with my 210. The right side is perfectly level (bubble right in the middle), but the left side the bubble is off a little from the middle, but not past the vertical lines. Is this is a problem. I can post pictures of the bubble if anybody is curious.

I am new to the hobby and I plan to fill it this Saturday.
