Does it have a plastic frame around it top and bottom? Those could be a pain to remove, have to do it slowly. The plastic will break if you reef on it too much.
After that, you just take the broken glass away from the other 2 sides. I used a guitar string, the smallest dia. I could find. and wound it around two dowels and see sawed my way betw. the panes. My helper was prying a little betw. the panes. I did all 5 sides/bot. of my 10$ leaker 50 gal. Hardest part I found was to get rid of ALL the old silicone. New silicone does not stick to old.
Its a lot of work, so hopefully you are not paying much for the 75/90
