what is the ACTUAL weight of acrylic?

[terd ferguson]

Is 25" the height? A 30" height would require thicker material, wouldn't it?

I have only owned one acrylic tank (my 96Lx24Wx30T 300 gallon) so I am by no means an expert. I just wonder why they would use 3/4" to build a tank that 1/2" was adequate for...

Anybody else with 30" deep tanks made from 1/2" acrylic?

You're correct. That's why I said "for the record". I didn't mean to say a 30" height could use 1/2" thick material. Although I have a feeling it could but would have some bowing.
