I measured the dimensions....it was custom built, but not sure if it was professional. The bottom piece of glass is TWO PIECES. The frame is wood. Glass and wood are strong and thick, and where the glass is parted and siliconed there is a wooden "beam" supporting it connecting to the bottom frame. As far as I know, that last person who used it kept it half full for two turtles. Would this still be safe to fill for an aquarium? I measured the dimensions and judging by an online guide its a 100 gallon tank!

Tbh I'd worry that the bottom was in 2 pieces.
When full with water any weakness in the joint could cause it to leak

Not sure I would fancy 100g of water in my living room with a split base like that. You could always silicone one large peice of glass inside if you can get it past the brace bars.
