Just wondering how this tank is doing today? Thinking about doing it to a recently acquired 135 and a 150..
 
My understanding is requiring a cross brace not only depends on glass thickness, amongst other things, but also the tank height as well. The guy that built my tank sometimes does not add cross braces if the tank is not considered "tall". Of course perimeter eurobrace is a given always for him.

For tanks having a plastic trim - I had always thought that does serve a purpose to keep the tank together?
