Forcing a bent front glass back will put more pressure on the new top brace to front glass joint, but decrease pressure on the side glass to front glass joins. This + added long run stability is at least what I weigh into the equation when choosing to glue a center brace that have been missing for a while. Not super fond of forcing the front glass back but the pros seem to be more than the cons I reason. Would love to hear you elaborate on this factor more also Chris, thanks for the video 👍

What thickness and width of aluminum? Also, you say bend at one point and weld in a couple others. Is it just 1 shaped piece or is it welded? Thanks!

Thanks for the video! Where can you buy a piece of acrylic for fixing the center brace that has just cracked in the middle? And what thickness would you use?

I have a 125 no brace i got acrylic i was gonna take a strip and use bj glass n plastic weld to hold in on across the tank because my actually plastic trim is also cracked u think that would b better than silicon?

My custom tank is 48"-20"-20" 10mm glass and I'll give 3 top width braces with 3" 8mm glass. Two times the middle brace glass is sleeping with silicon glue.. What can I do? Do i need euro brece on top only or bottom both??

[@andrewwhelpley2184]

What grade of aluminum do you use for the braces?

[@blueeyesliz1]

Bought a dirty aquarium come to see cleaning it says critter tank dont use water its 18*33 *15 what do you think? She had fish in it has a too frame will it bow?

[@JBrass98]

Does any body know how thick or what grade aluminum should be?

If you haven't figured it out go with 4mm or so. It doesn't actually hold a lot of pressure, it's best to spread the load out.
