There are several differences between glass and acrylic aquariums. Glass aquariums are generally less expensive yet they can be quite heavy which makes shipment and installation cumbersome. Acrylic aquariums are lighter, stronger, have better insulation properties and they can be bent/shaped into various forms making them an ideal choice for custom applications.
