I know acrylic is more clear than glass, but my latest tank is starphire, however I have noticed things go out of focus when looking at them on an angle and not straight on. Is this a property of the glass, or does it happen in acrylic. Or is it just my eyes that are getting older and my glasses needing bifocals

Can't say that I've noticed that...been using acrylic tanks since 1991... And my eyes are old! Both of them!

Thanks nice prowler. Been wanting one for years as it always reminded me of my old 34' that left in a divorce.
Thanks, bought my first one in 1998, no way I'll ever sell it... when you're ready check out prowleronline.com
