Go
At 265 gallons your tank weighs the same as a car. If you would feel safe parking your car on the cabinet you are building then it is sturdy enough.

the cabnits should be strong enough the problem is that they are likely made out of k3 also know as particle board, which blows up and looses all strength after coming in contact with a sufficent ammount of water. even with a plastic laminate style counter top i would probably opt for a steel stand and then just hang matching cabnit doors on the stand. or have the cabnits made out of ply wood. or you could always go the 2x4 or 2x6 route with a stand and then cover those with the doors but a 2x4 stand takes up so much potential room that a steel stand really is worth the money!!

if there is a way to add in some 4x4's in the cabinets inside along wit some 2x6's on the edges you should be ok.
