No

Yes.

If you on a budget then as i said go all plywood except for the front. There you go 15mm tempered glass.

No offence meant but dont be stupid with a build this size.

I have no way of waterproofing plywood here in India

Order epoxy online via ebay? Buy a pondliner? Use liquid rubber?

You think he can build a 1500g tank with 15mm tempered glass? My 225g alone was 1/2 glass around and 3/4 bottom

My 425g is built with all 12mm but i have bracing inside the tank on the bottom with 12mm glass so i have 24mm contact area for the silicone..

I know if a guy in norway who has a 20000L tank all glass. I think his tank is 2x24mm glass laminated.

Concrete pond with a viewing glass would probably be your safest and best option. 12x12x4 is a helluvalota water to use all glass

This tank is all glas. 20000L. I think it costed almost 50000usd to build.

The guy who has this tank built this just for his planiceps cats, his arapaima and cichla temensis.. thats what i call dedication.

Wow keep us updated with that sounds like a project, what would you filter it with? I seen some really cool filter Ken just posted would probably be perfect for a massive system like that. I think it’s called the Nexus 320. Meant for overstocked Koi ponds.
