I've had acrylic as our first tank 90 gallon 4' x 18" x 24" tall used 3/8" with wrapped corners - way nicer looking than a glass aquarium IMO hands down because of this feature - also got it because of being paranoid with bumping into it and smashing a glass aquarium.
after having it, just like another user has mentioned:
easy to scratch = harder to clean
Coraline loves to grow on it = harder to clean
if you wanted to do acrylic you could probably use 1/2" or 5/8" material
but I'll caution you, if it was anything like our tank - you'll be spending 30 minutes or more cleaning your acrylic (FYI mr. clean magic erasers work best for this and cause no harm to your inhabitants)
