Lol, I feel the exact opposite regarding wood vs. glass. But, the main benefit of wood, in my opinion, is the fact that a properly built wooden tank may possibly develop a leak if the epoxy sealer is compromised...but it will never suffer the sort of catastrophic blow-out that is possible with an all-glass. I lived through one of those with an almost-new 108 gallon all-glass tank...when I lived in an apartment!...and that was what led me down the road to plywood construction.
