I'm looking looking to build a small frag tank hopefully going to do 36 x20 and 12 tall do you think quarter inch acrylic would do the job with three braces?

I would go 9mm
 
How about 48"L 18"W 18"H and 72"L 30"W 12"H ?

There is an excel file floating around the interwebs that is an acrylic thickness calculator. It’s fairly conservative and works great for what-if scenarios like this.

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

    Votes: 7 21.9%

  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

    Votes: 5 15.6%

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

    Votes: 5 15.6%

  • It depends on how badly I want the fish

    Votes: 10 31.3%

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

    Votes: 9 28.1%

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

    Votes: 5 15.6%

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

    Votes: 2 6.3%

  • I haven’t really considered this before

    Votes: 3 9.4%

  • Something else (see my comments in the thread)
