Update: , got the sump in place. I put it right on the floor an fill up with water for leak test



There is no leak but I noticed there are white line underneath the tank (not line from concrete)



So should i place the sump on ply wood and level it? All level are within the middle lines of level right now. Also anyone know what those lines are? i put my hand in tank to see if these are cracks and they are not. They Looks similar to mark when you bend a piece of acrylic

I would put the sump on foam at least rather than strait on the concrete. Not sure what the lines might be other than maybe there's a small dip in the floor and your seeing the oddly reflected light. It could also just be light reflected off the edges of the glass in the strange patterns you can see in the pic.

Agreed put the sump on some rigid foam, doesn't have to be perfectly level but needs to be evenly supported as the concrete won't be flat, it never is.

Might be scratches on the glass for being shifted into place on the floor.. Hard to say.

Definitely get some pink insulation board under there ..
