You are too humble liao, you are truly has the spirt of sharing and not post "DIY thing" for personal gain.

Your fame spread fast, heard that you have DIY a mini chiller for standard size 2 ft tank that able to cool to 18C. You sure got the knowledge on managing the heat and themodynamic.

Hi

Thanks for sharing the technique

But how do we identify tempered glass - any general characteristics like maybe those curved tanks?, or glass that feels like plastic?

Thanks

for the same tensile strengh , tempered glass is thinner the normal glass. As a general guide when you see a tank with thinner glass most proably its made of tempered glass. or just simple as the shop owner what glass its made off .
