fishfanatic said:I went to the LFS yesterday to buy a glass top for the tank and I found out that this tank is really old. The employees at the store said that tanks without a center brace is a old school tank. Should I be concerned about using this tank (it still isn't set up)? Would I be better off just buying a new one? Thanks!

ryan-peddle said:2-3 mm hmmmm I think it will be ok but I don't really want to see it bow at all is there anyway you can make a brace ?
ryan-peddle said:Is it wood trim you have at the top or is it the painted plastic?
Valous said:Does it have a center brace? If not does it look like its supposed to have one? If so you can add a piece of glass 2-3" wide under the trim were the brace is supposed to be
ryan-peddle said:Mine is almost exactly the same as your but no bow at all i am puzzled are you sure it wasn't bowed before filling?
