![]() The way I've seen it the most is; cross bracing from front to back of tank, and Eurobracing goes from one end to cross brace point, then starts again after crossbrace point. I've seen a couple that ran eurobracing all around and cross bracing was siliconed flush to the eurobrace. I think the first way would be stronger as the brace is siliconed to the front and back panels.
I hope the way I wrote this makes sense to you.

![]() If using both Euro style and center you would apply the euro brace first on the top and then apply the center braces so they sit either under or on top of the euro brace. Under is would probably work best.

![]() Best tie-in for the tank is a single piece cut euro-brace w/ center braces in either acrylic or glass. The whole thing is out of one piece. This way the structure is strong when tied into the tank.
