Acrylic is only recommended (IMHO & IME) for very large FOWLR tanks due to the weight savings and clarity.
Otherwise, for sw, with reef tanks & their high Ca levels, glass is the better choice since the coraline algae growth will cause you to scratch the hell out of your acrylic getting it off the viewing panels. Any little grain of sand on the scrubber pad or magnet cleaner will scratch up your tank as well.
