I am building a large frag setup in my garage. I built a stand for a large refugium(150g) and the stand and/or the floor is about 1/4" unlevel. Here is a picture of a shim I have on one side to level the stand and tank:

My question is, is it ok to shim one point on the stand such as this or do I need to have the entire stand making contact with the floor to evenly distribute the weight. BTW, the tank is all acrylic which may be a bit more forgiving.
Here is a broader shot of the tank/stand:
