I’m glad I thought to take pictures when I did this. When I was working on this, where the 2X4 wood blocks are, the dimension there was 1 1/2”, so the wood blocks worked fine. Not having any other materials to make 1/2”, 1”, and 2” blocks, I bought a sheet of 1/2” foam board and just grabbed a roll of tape at the Lowe’s I was at. I cut pieces of foam, taped them to get the thicknesses I needed, and using silicone caulking, glued them to the bottom of the tanks. Once the caulking was set, I pulled off the braces, reinstalled the coroplast and then reinstalled the braces. As it worked out, with the bottom of these tanks sloped 1/2” per foot, and the braces ended up being about a foot apart, those thicknesses of blocks worked out good. Not sure if everyone’s setup would be the same, but it isn’t that complicated.
