you might want to reinforce the top and bottom the way this tank is done. it is a 300+g tank that is all starfire glass. it is .5" thick also. we had to cut it apart because the first time it was siliconed together there was a little too much drinking and not enough checking of fit on the edges. so in the end there was bubbles in the seams. i went over to help cut it apart and clean everything up and re silicone it back together. its not hard to do its just time consuming. you might want to have some reinforcement pieces added to the top and bottom of the tank to make sure this never happens again.
