Question by Sally: How much could I buy a 75 gallon all glass aquarium with a hood for?
All I want is the 75 gallon all glass aquarium and lighted hood, no extras. I want these both to be new. Also I would care to know the price of a 75 gallon acrylic aquarium. What about plexi glass. How much for the aquarium and how much for the hood?I just want a base price. I can negotiate with fish shop owners, how low tin I negotiate. How much are they at petco? I know petco has a $ 1 a gallon sale up to 55 gallons.Also could you give me the dimesions of a standard 55 gallon and a standard 75 gallon.

Answer by bettachris
my 55 gallon is 4 feet in length, 12 inches broad, and 20 inch highmy 75 is a corner tank so i dont have the specs on that.Anyway lets go back to question. All glass is cheaper than acrylic, Im not sure if you know the difference, but heres alitle bit about it.Acryilic is light, but gets damaged more easily. It is more expensive as well. Where glass is heavier, and less easily scratched.My hood for my 55 gallon was a 100 dollars by itself. I did buy my 55 gallon new, with a double stand for 88 dollars from my lfs.So that is just a general price range. For a brand new 75 with a hood you can expect the ball park number of 170-200, the hood being the most expensive part.

Question by Jeff G: Will my aquarium light penetrate through acrylic glass?
The cover for my aquarium is a sheet of acrylic glass (a.k.a. plexi glass). I’m just going to place my light-colored right on top of the glass. Will that absorb too much of the light my live set need or will it be alright?
Best answer:
Answer by Tommy
It will get hotter than usual and the plants will absorb as much as they need but don’t leave light on more than 12 hours a day

Question by bluehorizon: Should I buy an aquarium hood or glass canopy?
I purchased a 29 gallon aquarium, and want to know should I buy an entire deluxe hood, or a glass canopy with a strip light? I don’t think I’ll have live plants, but it’s a possibility sometime down the road. thx

Answer by Hunter Ellis
I would buy a hood because if you have jumping fish the hood will keep them in the tank

Question by Trecey K: Do they cut glass or acrylic for aquarium DIY at Home depot?
I desire to add partitions to my tank tomorrow, but the glass binned is closed, haha. Does Home Depot do it?
Best answer:
Answer by cowboydoc
Home depot has some good acrylic for tanks but, you’d have to know what you desire, they don’t specialize. For a partition it would be O.K. as long as there isn’t any force behind it, just make sure of the measurements.

Question by : how do I know how thick the glass for an aquarium if making at home?
Want to know if a triangular design would be efficient and safe? Also, if I was to calculate how much water would be in a tank that would be 3ft across in front, and 3 ft tall; and its sides would measure 2ft by 3ft . Is this safe? How many gallons are actually in this size of a container? What about the thickness of the bottom piece of glass? Wouldn’t it be safer to have a thicker piece of glass at the base of such an aquarium? thanks for help.
