So I tried drilling my 75 gallon tank and ended up cracking it on the third hole.... called the local glass shops and had them make me a piece with the holes in it. I screwed up when I ordered it. Turns out 1/4" glass measures slightly less than a 1/4" rather than slightly more, and I now own an expensive piece of 1/4" glass that is one size thinner than the rest of my tank. I guess that means the tank is 5/16? Can I get away with that decrease in thickness on a standard 75 gallon rimmed tank or am I asking for trouble?
