Hiya, I've found someone to sell me an aquarium but they said they've been keeping snakes in it, is there a way I can tell if the aquarium is aquatic or terrestrial? it's a 75gallon tank and I wouldn't want to fill it up and have it crack on me =(

thanks!
 
good question. i think tanks of that size should be at least 10mm thick unless someone knows different
 
First measure the tank. Then go to http://garf.org/

Scroll down the left side of the page to the diy folder. There is a program in there for tank building. Enter the measurements, and it will tell you what thickness of glass you would need.

I put in 18"x48", with a 22" water depth. It recommends 3/8" thick glass.
 
Ahh thanks alot! 75 gallon tank for 75 dollars...hope it's aquatic!
