someone gave me a 55g but the top frame was destroyed so i removed it completely my question is can i just add a piece of glass from front to back in the middle for a brace or should i euro brace it and if euro brace it what size glass should i use
 
Yup, sure can do it that way. Use 2" wide 12mm (1/2") thick
