A couple of thoughts...First of all, if you build it into the wall, once you get it in place, the weight won't be a factor as long as you build the stand to support it properly. (remember to figure 10 lbs/gallon to account for all equipment, water, sand, etc.)
Next, since you treated for ich, you MAY have used copper...or not. Without knowing what medication you used, it's difficult to say. Personally, based on my years in the hobby, as long as you scrub the tank well, any residual copper should be a non-issue.
Since you already know you want a larger tank, why not go that route and use the 90 gallon for a sump? That'd give you plenty of water volume, lots of room for quality equipment like a skimmer, and even room to add a refugium is you choose.
