Aquarium Advice FINatic
For those of you who may be wondering, just a word about acrylic vs. glass tanks. I have 20 tanks, only two are glass. IMHO, acrylic tanks are far better. They are much lighter weight, don't leak, and nearly impossible to crack. Only minor downsides are: they can scratch if you rub gravel against the glass (but scratches can be buffed out) and because the top isn't totally open (there is a rim all around and maybe a strut across the top), it makes cleaning and catching fish a little more challenging. They can be easily drilled if you want to add water in-and output plumbing. And they do not yellow, contrary to popular opinion. I've had a 90 gallon acrylic for 27 years and it's almost like new today.
