Aquarium Advice Addict
Brenden said:acrylic is 17 times stronger than glass the same thickness. It scratches easier but can be buffed out easy. Also a much better insulator than glass. Glass can not be buffed out easy. I did a lot or research before I bought and went with acrylic. More money but worth it. Just make sure you get cell cast acrylic and not extruded.
Were did you get the 17 times stronger information?
As far as I knew acrylic was just alot more impact resistant?
