Thinking about building a tank tank thatll fit my 5 ft space for some frontosa out of acrylic but has some questions.

what is a good price for acrylic sheets? i went to a local plastic place and they told me i can buy a 4x8 cast sheet 1 inch think for about 500 bucks would you say that is a good price? or should i shop around?

ive read about acrylic front side and back panels bowing out over time has anyone tried using dado blades to cut ridges into the acrylic for the panels? seems like that would do a good job of holding the pieces in place but it might look a little funny on the bottom sheet.

and finally what is the best glue to use?
