Scratching the FRONT is not anything you need to be concerned about. If anything, you would want the glass on the INSIDE...that is what gets scratched. Regardless, I would just go with acrylic if...

I kept one that looked exactly like this in my first tank for many years. It was vegetarian. Some may be killers, but some are harmless and useful in aquariums.

Thanks very much. The tank continues to do well enough. The fish are certainly doing great, however my coral has not thrived for some time now. OK.. But not what it has been in the past.

WTB - Galaxy Dual-250W ballast
