tank building

[gmen5681]

well i would love to make a tank, nothing special just a 75-100 gallon tank, and was wondering how thick the glass should be for this? and where would i find someplace that sells glass lick that. would it just be cheaper to buy the tank instead of making one?

I would think that it would be easier to buy one.. and maybe cheaper in the long run.
When I wanted to build my own tank I did a search on the net and found lots of useful sites that tell you how thick of glass for certain sizes of tanks.

i was looking for some sites like that but couldnt find any. do you have a link?

 

[Idolz]

No, I can't remember what the sites were. It was a while ago when I wanted to do this.
