I'm brainstorming what sorts of surfaces I could use as a stand for a 20 long tank. I'm not seeing any existing stands that I really like in that size. I weigh almost as much as a filled 20g. tank, so I'm assuming anything that could support my weight would be doable...perhaps avoiding particle board or other surfaces that could become greatly compromised if wet.

Any BTDTs or advice?

Sounds like you've got the right idea. Worth noting that lots of the stands sold for aquariums are made from particle/press board. Smart to try to avoid it but it certainly can be used as a stand so long as you dont let it get constantly saturated.
