top of the tub. 3 different spots.

Just installed the new tub. The tub is level and im have problems in the center of the tub.Is it normal for spots to puddle in the center of the tub. I also get a puddle at the drain. Is this normal did i get a bad tub? The inside of the tub is offset heading toward the drain.

I plan on using laticrete hydro-barrier, instead of the redgard. From what I have read Laticrete is thicker. Should I apply it to all the cement board, like you would redgard? Its is for a shower/tub. I plan on using the laticrete mesh for all the corners.

Thanks All the ones I looked at have slip nuts. Where do i get them where they dont?

So i went ahead and used the r max. Here is is half finished i am using the tape to cover the cuts and wood. Would that stop me from have to put up another vapor? Here are my pics and tell me what you think. Or should i go with the pink unfaced insulation with a poly barrier?
