Just ordered my stand. Whoever owns one I Just would like to know what you guys think of it and anything I should know.
 
I have neither, however my understanding is that the common dimensions of a 120gal are 48 1/2 x 24 1/4 x 25 1/2 where as the dimensions of the SR80 stand are 47.44 x 23.82 x 39.37. The tank will over hang the stand by 1/2" on either side, and a few MM front and back. Given that the 120gal is both 50% larger than the intended tank for that stand, and the stand is made of pressboard, I would not chance it. You might be able to get away with putting some additional structural supports in and placing a piece of plywood cut to the correct dimensions on top, still, I think personally, its asking for trouble.

Dimensions of the stand
 
It's not the pressboard stand. It's made of aluminum. But I am going to check the dimensions

Ah, you are correct, sorry the manual for the SR80 describes the pressboard stand, but the APS is in fact alu. Weight and torsion should be fine then, just verify those dimensions. Good luck
