Stand footprint for IM 20

Seriously thinking about picking up an IM 20 for my work desk (after a lot of hemming and hawing between that or setting up one of my spare biocube 29s)....

The downside to the IM 20 is that it is going to sit lower than where I want it for my eye level. The tank is 13" tall but having the top of the tank at 14-15" from the surface is where I think it's best for my set up. (I sit high at my desk and have the surfaces installed in a tall config).

So, my thought is to maybe use a board or two to raise the tank up to the desired level. But, here's my real question... I want to have a floating look similar to the Fluval Edges/EVO 13.5G. Do you guys think that the IM 20 bottom would tolerate having a smaller base supporting it than it's true base dimensions (24x15)?

Thinking maybe have a 1 - 2" delta on front and sides between tank and base platform...
