Who has kept an acrylic tank outside? I'm looking for pro and cons.
Thanks for any information!

I have kept both. Acrylic insulates better so is probably the better choice to deal with the wider temperature range. I an not think of any other pro or con that would be relevant to being in the garage.

I was worried about how the seal would hold up since it would be exposed to more vs being inside the house.
