Maybe everyone has moved on but I would definitely beef up that stand.

As is it may be technically adequate but you always want to over build on a project this large.
For sure you should brace the legs around the bottom and add more 2x4's at the corners and even the center.

Just my opinion

the eggcrate doesnt need to be glued down like you suggested i would almost make it the size of my tank bottom but i would keep it a few inchs away from the front or anywhere yourt tank will be viewed, so if your sand gets pushed around you wont end up seeing eggcrate endings.
