I have a 135 gallon with no center brace. the tank didn't come with one and its in good condition. My concern is that it bows a 1/4" when filled with water. Does anybody know if that's ok? I've had different feed back but from people that never heard of a tank with no center brace. If anybody had one or know about this particular tanks please give me some advise. :feedback:

1" glass on a 180? I have never heard of that...

My 180 is pretty old, probably from the 80s and still only has 1/2" glass.

I bought it used a few weeks ago. Its 35" tall its 58x28x35 I'm pretty sure it was custom made by someone since its euro brace

The 135 I have is 72"x18"x24" with 1/2" glass and there is a piece of sticker between the top trim and glass that say march 27,1987.
