use those composite shims from Rona or home Depot. The cedar ones are soft wood and will compress over time.

Dez are they tappered?

My other thought was to use some type of stryofoam under the whole tank that would compress. any thoughts.

Yes, they are tapered. I have an engineer friend with 10 feet of tank and this is what he uses. I used them when I had a 150. they are great.

Hope this helps.
