I have 2 tanks both on hardwood and am not too worriend about it. Also, having leveling legs on a stand would be a good idea too, since the floor may not be perfectly level.
For the same reason i am glad my 33g is on felt as i had a hose leak and alot of water hit the deck. I slid the tank over and dried up the mess, then put it back. The rubber pad may prevent you from drying up which will definately affect your floor. My 1 cent worth. Good luck!
