So looking at either a 96 or 120} by 30 wide by 24 tall tank. At that size I think acrylic is my choice. That said what thickness would be recommended? I am seeing some in 1/2 acrylic with 3/4 front and back and then a few made 3/4 “ all sides. Have been looking used but not finding anything remotely close to me so considering new. Please give me your opinions etc...as acrylic is new to me. It’s a bare bottom fish only and scratches are not my concern
Thanks, Jim
 
Jim, I made a 90g tank (36x30x20) with 3/8" glass and rimless. You can see the construction in my build thread. Feel free to ask questions if you are interested.
