acrylic for a reef tank is a big negative, in my opinion. If you're interested in acrylic because of it's index of refraction and clear-ness, then just get a starfire front on your tank.

The reason is that it scratches way too easily when filled with liverock and especially if you have sand. Yes, you can buff it out, but who wants to drain their tank to remove all the scuffs on the bottom 6" of the tank?
