I have posted this question in the techniacl section as well as here, and would appreciate any feedback.... am wondering if this tank is strong enough; would apprecaite feedback http://www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing ... d=77044920 I used the formula from the technical glass section however it doesn't take into account the reinforcement, I am wondering if this tank is strong enough; it is 6 years old and does not leak Tank is 1664 L x 364 W x 476 H internal, with reinforced edges. The sellers response to one of my questions about tank construction We’re neither glaziers nor experts. Tank has been fine for the 6 years we have owned it. All tank components are 6mm thick. Tanks front, rear and ends are bonded on top of bottom pane. The joint between the front and rear panes to the bottom is reinforced with an internal 50mm wide strip bonded to the tank bottom and the inside face of the main panes. Three 150 wide horizontal spreader panes are bonded between the top edges of the front and rear panes, at ends and centre. Further 75 wide horizo (the rest of the response was missing from the seller)
