I am planning to buy an aquarium, but I don&#8217;t know if I should buy a glass aquarium or an acrylic aquarium. original post: February 22, 2007, 7:12 am anonymous 2008-05-01 Answer no. 1 http://forum.aqua-fish.net/?topic=acrylic-aquarium-vs-glass-aquarium#2 In general, acrylic aquariums are far much better than glass aquariums, so if you can afford to buy it, then go for an acrylic aquarium. anonymous 2008-05-01 Answer no. 2 http://forum.aqua-fish.net/?topic=acrylic-aquarium-vs-glass-aquarium#3 Yes, acrylic aquariums are better than glass aquariums in a lot of aspects, but one disadvantage is that that they get scratched quite easily and you should buy cleaning pads especially made for acrylic aquariums in order to prevent any scratching and be very very careful during the set-up process.
