Is this desk good enough to support these tanks?

I have a 180cm wide , 2.5cm thick tabletop (made of wood ) and 2 Alex drawers holding it up. On top I have a 90litre and a 45litre on the sides on top of the drawers. I've recently started to get concerned about whether this can support the tanks long term. Opinions?
My parents say it's fine tho...
Here are pics of my desk
So far it's been set up this way for around a year

Those drawers are handling all the weight of the tanks so as long as you arent noticing them harder to open or tweaked to one side, i would say they are acceptable to continue supporting your tanks.
