Hey guys,
so i just recently bought a 36 gal bow front aquarium
i currently own a 20 gal aquarium that have been running for about 8 months so ill be moving all my stuff in a bit
a i have a question before i move all my stuff.
The 36 gal tank had a brace at the top. its so flimsy plastic and its right in the middle. i was wondering if you can cut this top brace there is one at the bottom as well.
the reason im asking bc its right in the middle and im using a hang on the back MH light. So the brace is in the way.
anyways anyone know if i can cut this brace when there is still one in the bottom or will it break my tank?
thanks !

More than likely they did that cause their's broke.....Personally I would not cut a perfectly good brace
Plus yours is a bow, and I wouldn;t mess with that
