Broken glass!

[hungrybride]

I was taking apart my ~30 gal aquarium to reseal.. I bought it second hand. One of my panes broke. Where can I get a replacement? Also can I use plexiglass to glass that one section as long as it it the same dimensions?! Thanks!!

Just look up a local glass shop in your area and get them to cut a piece. I wouldn't try bonding plexiglass to glass, not sure if it's even possible. That said, I would just get a new tank.

Acrylic to glass will not hold...

Definitely compare the cost of getting new glass cut, and the hassle of siliconing it in place, and the anxiety regarding whether or not it will hold, versus just buying a new tank. If the glass panel is just cracked, but still in place, give it away for use a reptile terrarium. Over my years I have donated several tanks to reptile owners.

An Aqueon 45 Gallon has the same 30” x 12” footprint, as the 30 gallon. Just taller at 24” verses 16”
