Years ago I also had a 6-ft 135 gal. But I gave up on that size after the front pane cracked in the middle of the night. Water poured out until enough pressure was relieved. It was a frantic night of moving fish to other tanks and draining the rest of the water out.

The mfg (I don't even remember what brand - this was years ago) replaced the tank. Months later, the replacement leaked at a bottom plate seam. That's when I decided to stick to my trusty 55 gal tanks - which must be in use 30 years now.

I miss the big tank, but unless I can locate it on a concrete slab floor with a drain in the middle, I'm passing.
