How Level Should It Be?

I have been trying to get my reefer 425xl leveled and was wondering how level is level? Should I be a perfectionist and get it as perfect as possible? Or is this ok enough?

I know some will insist it be absolutely perfect, and while preferable, that wouldn't bother me. My RSR has settled over the years and is about a 1/8" off front to back. I contacted red sea about it and they said it's nothing to worry about.

You're probably fine, if level is accurate.
Being a carpenter w/ an eye I do shoot for perfection myself, but not like an 1/8" out in say a 4 foot run or whatever you have there is going to put any stress or anything.
I'd leak test and look at waterline and check level midway while filling.

Thanks for the reply! I feel like I’ve been messing with the leveling feet constantly to try and get it perfect. It is now a little bit better than this picture.
