plywood glass help

[Davey_8313]

Hi, I was just wondering how thick of a piece of glass that I would need for a 62x28x24 tank I plan to build. It's just going to be a viewing window about 4'x22" b/c I have a sheet of glass already that size that's 1/2" thick. Would that be thick enough?

I know, lol, but they recommend to not go over 24" height when more than 48" long which mine is. They recommend 3/8" up to 24" though, but I don't know after that, just making sure...
