Bought several sizes...depends on "weight" of glass...you will see when you start to mock/prep it up....their cheap

 

[Reefin' rumors]

This whole tank is 1/2" glass...

 

[Reefin' rumors]

At least an 1/8".

Wow... this is a really nice looking build...

I like the way you have your plumbing installed. The "v" shape... are those your returns?
