I did tons of research for few months before I did any construction of my tank and believe me 1/2 inch is minimum u can use 1" taller and it have to be 3/4" thickness of acrylic.

I get .837 inches with those dimensions at http://diyfishkeepers.com/AcrylicThicknessCalculator.htm

And at this site it does say 3/4" would suffice http://www.cichlid-forum.com/articles/diy_acrylic_aquarium.php

And that was just a quick google search...

Now dont get me wrong the tank looks beautiful and you can see the craftsmanship, but did you deliberately search for "what's the thinnest i can make this?"


Total hight of tank is 25 " that mins u including bottom and top which is extra inch measuring inside side the tank is 24" tall so that is minimum thickness of acrylic according to chart form link 2 u provided which I was going by when I was doing research.

Hello All,

I'm still here and have been busier than ever. I haven't had a bunch of time to post and maintain my Vendors Forum but I'll be posting more in the New Year!

Thanks
