I want to DIY a plywood tank, and I'd like it to be 60x36x36.
I know there are pressure issues with "taller" tanks, but if instead of having a full side viewing window, I'm ok with some border space and a smaller viewing window, say 20x40 centered so there'd be lots of wood around it. Or use a full height pane but cut multiple smaller holes in the wood leaving "braces" so that there would be some extra support every 12-18".
Either ossible? If so, what thickness glass/acrylic would I need (haven't decided which) and which plan would be better?
