Can I use a freshwater aquarium ... is there any difference in the thickness of galss between freshwater and saltwater tanks?

you can use a freshwater tank no prob there is no difference in glass as its done by the amount of water it will hold and over what span.i would make sure that the freshwater tank has been cleaned good and absolutely can never of had copper used in it for medications,the silicone soaks it up and leaches into the saltwater.

if you get a freshwater tank get it drilled theres lots of people who will do it and youll be thanking yourself everyday that you do cheers jerry buddy
