You simply make a flat top to the stand and it just sits on that and the trim touches around the perimeter and any cross bracing..
You do not need foam between a trimmed tank either.

I actually make all my stands now without a top and just put bracing under where the trim pieces are so that I can look up from the bottom and see everything under the sand,etc...
The tank trim and bracing is strong, but it's not really that thick. Are you saying that if you had a flat top underneath it the glass wouldn't flex down to touch it...or it might barely touch it....but that's OK?
