Ended up using 2x6 for the basic frame, 2x6's for the "joists" (5 in total), and a mix of interlocked 2x6's and 2x4's on the corners, flat laid 2x6's and 2x4's for the bottom, and 3 additional 2x6's for just some extra support. To tighten it up I screwed and glued plywood to the upper and lower deck, then ran a strip of plywood along 2x6's that extended from the back slightly, and ran screws through that into wall studs. I don't think it's going anywhere, but it's only 125 gallons.
