got a quick question for everyone. i was brainstorming while at work about how to make the windows on my new iguana enclosure as cheaply as i can. and i had an idea.

do you guys think it would possible to pull as 75 gallong tank apart and use the front and back glass as windows in my enclosure? i am thinking it wont be an issue because they are siliconed together but i have never taken an aquarium apart before.

i am thinking of this because a) the glass will be free, b) thinker than what i was planning on buying anyway.
 
Never done it before, but I would guess you could use a box cutter and some acetone to seperate the glass panels. I'm sure this has been done before, so I hope you get a reliable answer instead from the peanut gallery!
