I think it should be ok if you compare your stand to the design of a Gorilla rack. I've seen many members putting 180 glass tank on Gorilla racks. If you think you'll loose sleep on it then slap a metal brace across to prevent it from flexing. The other option is to add a center support. It might no be the pretty with a center brace but it's will give you a peace of mind.

Called my brother-in-law who has built his own rock crawler and is an engineer (aka really knows his stuff and who to actually work with) and he is directing us where to find the steel piece. I think I'll make my husband cut and drill it (he's handy when I need to make sure I don't break myself ).
