Bowing in Glass or Acrylic aquariums

[nickng]

Hi I wonder if any members out there know of a calculator or estimator that can give an estimate of the expected bowing for glass or acrylic aquariums given the following:
(1) dimensions of the aquarium and amount of water in the tank
(2) material used
(3) thickness of the panels used
(4) rimless or eurobraced, perimeter braced or with middle cross-bracing

Also what have people seen out there based on aquariums they have owned and personal experience?

In my opinion, glass aquarium shouldn’t have any bowing.
