10 mm 12mm 8+8mm Low Iron Clear Tempered Laminated Glass Used  For Aquarium Glass Fish Tank

• Laminated glass is constructed of two plies or more of glass which are bonded together with interlayers to form a permanent bond. The interlayers work to support and hold the glass to create a strong, uniformed layer even when broken.

Aquarium Sizes, Glass Thickness, Bracing & Structural Considerations:

An 8-gallon fish tank usually comes in the size of 4×2 feet. This aquarium size is categorized as a small fish tank. Tempered glass of at least 10mm should be used in the construction of an 8-gallon aquarium.
Medium-sized fish tanks usually accommodate 15 gallons of water. A typical medium-sized aquarium comes with dimensions of 5×3 feet. The recommended tempered glass thickness for such an aquarium is at least 12 to 16 mm.
For a huge fish tank that can hold 65 gallons of water, 20mm thick tempered glass should be used. The dimensions of big aquariums are usually 8×6 feet. 
These aquarium glass thickness recommendations are meant for tempered glass. The suitable thickness may vary a little bit depending on the type of glass used in the aquarium.

For many homeowners, offices and commercial spaces, aquariums are design features and living ecosystems:

Aesthetic/Design Value: A spotless glass aquarium becomes a centerpiece; low-iron clarity, minimal framing, uninterrupted view converts spaces.
Psychological Benefits: Studies and anecdotal evidence show that watching fish in motion can reduce stress, anxiety, and aid focus.
Educational/Companionship Value: Aquariums teach responsibility (for kids) and create ambient living habitats.
Investment Angle: A well-designed build (with quality glass, proper engineering) retains value and avoids future expensive repairs/leaks.
