![]() Depends on who you talk to
![]() BUT, in general, acrylic is lighter, clearer and stronger(especially in an earthquake). So it makes sense for LARGE tanks or tanks that are weird shapes and sizes.

![]() I found a place in Langley, BC that claimed they could make anything...and had acrylic up to 1" thick. Unfortunately, they had no experience making aquariums in particular - which made me nervous.
In the end, I went with Envision in Oregon. http://www.envisionacrylics.com/index.html He provided a lot of experience and actually built things into the tank that I had not considered. (ie. removable overflow strainers)
