    Tank Bracing Removal

    I just bought a 150gallon tank and on top it has a frosted piece of glass that’s siliconed in with a plastic frame around it. The plastic of the framing does not attach to the plastic rim of the tank. The panel is just siliconed to the glass, I’m assuming not adding structural support. I’m...

    I just got a second hand Aquael Rimless tank 99gal. It's got like a semi euro brace in the middle? Is that sufficient or do I need to add a center brace or additional braces? Dimensions: 59"x20"x20" 10mm thick glass

And while I went on a search on the best way to get rid of the silicone residue, I kept reading that it’s not a good idea to do rimless. Kind of too late now.... it’s a standard 55 gallon so the...

    Aquarium frame splitting!

    I noticed yesterday evening that the center brace frame on my 55 gallon tank has began splitting and there was a slight bow on the front glass. I ran to Home Depot and bought a bar clamp to help stabilize the pressure in the meantime. I am looking for suggestions on what to do, thanks!
