Seeking someone with experienece. Im building an 8 foot 240 gallon out of 1/2 cast (acrylite). Going to do the traditional bracing in the front and sides.. 4" wide as well as 3 6 or 8" front to back braces.
The issue is im doing an 8 foot coast to coast internal overflow. If i braced the back i wont have access to it.
So i was thinking i wpuld just glue the 4" brace on the back of the aquarium. This would achieve the rigidity for the back panel and only really cover the plumbing and ypu wouldnt be able to see it from the front of the tank.
Seems like a good work around to me..?
Am i missing something?
