I'm planing on building a custom glass tank dimensions are L62" x W12" x H20". Does anyone have any advice about glass thickness? Also I would like to avoid having a center brace on this tank, so what can I do instead? I was thinking about eurobracing but I don't know much about it. Can anyone give me more info on how to do it? Or any other suggestions?
Building a custom glass tank and need help

ok so I spoke to the local glass cutter and he said he'll use 10mm glass and only two support glass panels 12" wide on each side leaving the center open. Anyone has any opinion on this? I know it's not a monster tank and probably not that intresting topic to everyone but any help is appreciated.
I agree it's small but that's how wide is the place where it's going so as much as I want to make it wider I can't. I'll have to settle for fish up to 10" max size. Will it being narrow and long create a problem concerning pressure on the front and back pannels or smth like that? And is 12x12" support panels on the corners enough to support the pressure?
