You'd might be surprised that some of the furniture from Ikea is quite strong. I used one of those corner computer desks with no added support in the middle, as a stand for my 54 gallon corner tank for a couple years. In fact I think that tank and stand are still in circulation. Dressers are very stable because of the numerous verticle and lateral supports for the drawers etc. You could also reinforce it if you can't sleep at night.

Got a message back from Ikea regarding anything they carry to support the aquarium. Basically they go, we have nothing at all that can support that kind of weight but they are working on it.
I guess we will stay with what we have for now ... just have to find a good spot for the ballast since it doesn't fit in the cabinet that is part of the stand. This will be interesting as it may end up beside the tank if i can't find a better spot for it.
