I always use foam below my tanks, even on factory bought ones...

Bow Valley sells tons of tanks, and I think most of them (mine included) has the sides and ends resting on the bottom piece. If you have an adequately strong and level stand with a piece of foam inbetween, you should be fine. I would go as thick as possible on the bottom piece if drilling holes and non-tempered, though...
I had a 33 gal freshie tank bust open once upstairs and would go to EXTREME lengths to prevent such an occurence...especially with a big reef.
