    Is Starphire glass worth the cost?

    starfire will scratch easier then standard glass. other then that the only downfall is its cost. If you look at my thread labeled Yerboys rimless sps build you will see a photo i posted of side by side starfire/regular glass and see the difference.

    the glass will be 3/4" at that thickness there isn't much difference? I just hate the idea of putting powerheads on the side of the tank but if it becomes a must then its a must.
