Default supporting 20G long by long sides alone

Question: Is it safe to mount an aquarium (20 gallons, long) so that it
rests on rails along the long sides, but not the short sides? From
eyeballing it it looks this should be safe, but a word or two of authority
would be reassuring.




FWIW my 55 gallon sump is supported that way- leak free for 6+ months now.
I don't know that it is recommended- just my experience.
