Any one use these and if so what brand. Trying to level my 180 gallon stand on my basement floor is a pita. In order for it to work I have like 5 of six legs shimmed with sheet metal. Seems smarter just to add the adjustable feet for it and future use in a different house or something.

My floor messsed up lol. It would take about 3 bucks ;) I like the sheet metal cause it seems to cover the entire leg.
 
Most basement floors are a bit of a job to level a tank. Most have a floor drain and the floor slants slightly to that drain.

Yeah, It's annoying lol. I mean how the way I have it now with a 4 foot level the bubble is clearly between the lines just not perfectly centered on one end. Its more so touching one side. The long way and the opposite side is dead on though. Its more annoying than anything. If I move that corner up the tank becomes unstable again blah!
 
I leveled one with thin strips of aluminum, but my metal rack had 4 legs not a solid bottom.

There's that 770g mosnter build on here somewhere. The guy leveled his stand with poplar shims that he planed at a long sloping angle and painted them
