I`ve got some glass... its actually from a shower door and would like to get fishy with it. What size tank could i safely build with glass that is 2.5 to 3mm thick? Would making the tank narrower (IE limiting it to 4-8 inches of depth) put less pressure on the glass? The sheets are 54 inches by 14 inches
