Glass thickness
Hi all,
I am building a hudge terrarium (185 gallons). You can see pictures of the base at this url :
http://s98.photobucket.com/albums/l259/venon_2006/
The height of the glass will be 42 inches.
I was thinking to use the following thickness :
bottom : 5 mm
sides : 4 mm
back : 5 mm
front : 5mm
top: 5 mm
Will that be ok ?
Thank you
venon

is that the thickness of the glass?
It seems a bit thin, but if you wont use it for holding water, then I think it will be nice!

yes this is for the glass.
Maybe I should go for 6 mm for the bottom...
There will be a small pound of around 15 gallons.
