3/4" plywood acx for preference. The couple inches the tank hangs off the table should be fine with that under it. Same execution as the particle board idea.

Yup. Finish it with epoxy to keep the inevitable dribbling from causing splitting and ddelamination. Wood boat decks are made like this (or encapsulated in gel coat) and last for years.

ACX is a grade of plywood. A is a high quality veneer meant for the visible side. C is a lower quality veneer and not as visibly pleasing. X means exterior grade that uses waterproof glue between the veneers.
