Glass or Acrylic??

[tjara03]

This may be a stupid question-- I dont know if my aquarium is glass or acrylic.. is there any way i can tell?? TIA!!

Glass will appear "greenish" on the ends, acrylic should appear clear. Acrylic also usually has many micro-scratches when viewed up close. Glass would not have those.

hmmm... the ends are like a light-blueish color...

I think it's safe to say that it's glass. Especially if you can see the silicone used to glue each piece of glass together. Acrylic generally doesn't have any seams...HTH
