Anybody work for a glass company?

[Leviathan]

Im thinking about building my own aquarium and i just wanted to know roughly how much it would cost me in glass before i get carried away with re arrangeing my room.
Im probably looking at a 6ft tank so i think i would need either 12mm or 15mm thick galss.
Thanks in advance.

6' x 3' x 3' tank could theoretically be 6mm toughened glass.

Being safe, 10mm toughened will be something like £30 per square metre.

The weakest point will be the joint between horizontal and vertical glass, rather than the glass itself. Make sure you read up on glass adhesives.
A mate of a mate in Lincolnshire makes aquariums. Will try for some advice.
