Hey guys and gals

I was hoping for some help with something. I was thinking of setting up a 800X800X600 cube and was wondering what would the thickness of glass be that i need to use

I want to do a nice little DIY project to keep my mind occupied at night

Any help would greatly appreciated

i was told that 10mm glass would be sufficient for this cube but i just want to make sure before i run off and buy glass that will break under the pressure

I have a 900x900x600 cube from 12mm glass, very little deflection. My tank is rimless.

Have spoken to a number of tank builders and they all seemed happy enough with 12mm rimless on this size.
 
Ive seen two 800x800x600 cubes in 10mm glass thats rimless...

Ive got a brand new one including stand with 50mm wide euro brace for sale if u interested R4k
 
i want to do everything that i possibly can DIY. It would give me a greater sense of pride and accomplishment at the end of the day
