For all you tank building engineering types....

The aquatools calculator assumes rimless though they don't state it, so a safety factor of 5 should be fine. 7 to 9 is overkill. I use 10 mm glass on my rimless 24x24x20 tank. My friend has a rimless that is about 31.5x14x18 and it uses 6 mm glass (though I could not say whether it is tempered or not.

Thanks for the advice guys, I feel much better about it now, and it is 10mm glass, I measured from the sanded edge and it doesnt account for the slight bevel too the glass.
