ctenophore October 23, 2009 Share October 23, 2009 (edited) Typically only 1/2" is used on a 30" deep tank. Can you give details? is it just a single pane? You might consider tempered for durability, price, and weight. Of course you can't drill it though. Edit: I found the spreadsheet I used to calculate glass thickness for my tank. Hope this helps. glass_thickness_calculations.xls Edited October 23, 2009 by ctenophore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call delray glass, they can quote you a delivered price, this is not something you really want to try and move yourself IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
