Glass Aquarium
How to make a glass aquarium?

I have a 2 1/2 foot long by 8 in wide and 10 in deep hole in the top of a entry way divider. I have plants in it now and wold like to make it an aquarium by putting fish in it. It is made of wood. I would like to make or buy a custom glass tank to put in there. Does anyone know how I can do this or where I can get one? I ned it to the exact size to fit. I can’t buy one at the size I need.Thanks!

I’ve “BUILT” dozens and have to ask,,, Plants and Fish together? Hopefully not any that contradict each other.

The space is far too confining for even the smallest fish, and I hope you’ll rethink this. BTW, what’s wrong with just a terrarium?

I use tempered glass, often as thick as 1/4 inch, and adhesives specifically designed. I’ve crafted them up to 100 gallons.

The process is easy, and certainly I agree in part with one other answer in knowing the pounds per square inch in the volume of water. In your example it would be minimal, but also an extremely confining environment even for fish.

Certainly then there are multiple other things to consider. Airation, filtering, feeding, space for the equipment, lighting, etc. etc. etc.

With no real offense, as neat as it may seem, please consider other options.
