Replace Front Glass on my 90G

[TBHockey]

I bought a used 90G and want to replace the front glass on it....Dimensions are 48"x20"x 3/8" (actual is 47 3/4 x 19 3/4 x 3/8)

Anyone know a good Glass Shop to get a cut like this?

That seems like alot of work, you must have gotten a great deal. I would assume any glass shop can cut it for you. You might look into starphire(sp) glass since you're doing it...

Do you think it would be better to just get another used 90? I got the stand, pumps, skimmer, canopy, lights with this one. Not sure what the Glass will cost, but if i found a deal on a 90 for close to that price i could use this one as a QT.

I replaced the top trim on a 55 and that was a PITA. I have,nt replaced glass but I can assume you would have to get both top and bottom trim off to do it. The trim on the 55 was about $20. I dont think they come off without breaking them. I would think if you find one for @ $1 gal you'd be better off. IMO, maybe someone else will chime in with an opinion

I really agree with that. Look here, on craigslist and in the flyer and newspapers... bet you'll find one for a song and save your self lots of labor.

Thanks for the feedback, i will keep checking, Craigslist has some deals, may go a little bigger and use this for a QT or sell it to someone for a Sump/QT.
