It isn;t really that much different than the norm but after seeing the one thread about the tank exploding I thought I would ask and see if my idea is feasible.
The basics are the same, the glass is all siliconed together the same way but on each corner I have a piece of framing made out of wood that is also siliconed to glass. This provides a support for the edges and sides and also keep one from hitting the corners just right and breaking the tank that way. It also allows me to customize hom high I make the supports in order to hide the substrate and make it look as if the tank starts right at the top of the wood and not see all the gravel underneath.
I just need to know if there is any reason why having wood touch the glass on the bottom wether inside the sides or not would lead to catastophic failure? I would have foam under it to support the glass like I have heard will work.
Anyone have any idea if this will work or not?
