You will be fine to remove that brace.
Can't see how it would reduce the safety factor as much as Warren said.
Alot of 3ft tanks only have bracing on each end and thru the middle.
Go for it.
Hi Thought The Goldfish Bowl, The Fish Tank were not owned by him?
Goldfish bowl is now critters and rodney owned The Fish Tank which is now owned by critters to????????????
Yes it is legal as long as you do it the right way.
You need to get the right papers both here and where the item came from.
It is amazing what you are able to bring in.
Acrylic would scratch.
I would have thought 2 panels would be better anyway, well strength wise that is.
I would also think glass would be cheaper than acrylic.
19mm glass is quite easy to get in nz. You would have to look at using a couple of viewing panels.
You could also use natural light. I think this would be a better option. Some well placed skylights would do the trick.
