I think as long as you take precautions against water splashing and inspect for salt creep during regular maintenance you should have no problems. Check my 65 gal build thread for more details.

When I built my stand I cut an 18"x15" hole in the back of it. It allows for ventilation and for cords and pipes to run through. I have been looking at adding fans to the stand permanently just haven't figured out the best way to do it yet. Usually just use a house fan.
