My very first tank was a 90 gallon (4') and all I did was stacked cinder blocks 3 high on either side, slapped a piece of wood on the cinder blocks and that's what the tank sat on - NO top rail at all. Hope this helps.
Sweet! I am a lot less worried now and won't be employing those 2x2s, thanks guys! :-)
