Thanks for the detailed info folks! Now we have a better idea of some techniques that may work & some that probably won't. Whether it's worthwhile or not will be up to the individual willing to take the chance. As I mentioned, I wouldn't try it on a display tank that I want to keep as a display, but certainly an option for a cheap sump. Once I retire the 77, it really won't be any good as a display any longer. I could always leave it at 24 inch height, but sometimes I like a little challenge.
The blade height on the tile saw is adjustable, so may even be able to use it to initially score the glass. The technique of first cutting the silicone down to the desired height is definitely a good one. Take out one piece at at time.
