I posted this in Nano Tank section, but not sure if it's the right spot.

Last night I purchased the Mr Aqua 25 gallon cube to set up in my office at work. Today I went looking for something I can use as a stand for it. My goal is to make it look like an 'executive' piece of furniture that is a focal point of my office for clients. I came across this piece, but the top dimensions are 18 x 22. Any issues do you think if the sizes are exactly the same? What if the tank ends up being slightly larger than the 18" listed for the top? Also the stand looks like the top over hangs the body of it by an inch all the way around, will this cause any issues? Thanks for any input.

I wouldn't use a stand that is smaller than the footprint of the tank.

According to both dimensions they are the same size, but you never know if they could be a fraction of an inch here or there. This is my main reason for asking.
