This is only
my opinion, and anyone else who says otherwise is not connected to me ... blah, blah, blah, ......
I am
very concerned about what you have said with your gap between your stand and tank
Do NOT try to fill the gap with something ....
Your stand, IMHO, should be as tight a fit to your tank as possible ....
IMHO, no foam will ever alleviate / fix compression of our tanks ...
Put your tank on it's stand and let the carpet settle, 1/2 day, all day, all weekend, whatever .... fill it and let it settle
Next, put RO water in it to the full line and level it when it's full ....
Now you can play with the level limits ...

I've found a couple of different types of foam tape. I have found "expanding" foam tape (an automotive product, but I think it is too thick), and weather stripping foam tape (in various thicknesses, and open and closed cell). Is one of those types of tape what I should be looking at?
