    I got a response from Aqueon Aquariums in response to my Tempered Glass Inquiry
    Hi David,
    Any panel of any aquarium has the potential to be tempered. The only way to know for sure is by checking. There are videos on You Tube that will show you how to check using a polarized lens.

    Thanks. Wish I'd known this trick about an hour ago. The Internet lied to me and now it's back to Petco with a laptop and RayBans lol.

      Thanks Scott. A lot of people are drilling their own tanks lately. Good to know what to look for

    For those of you who don't get a fully blacked screen even when not viewing through the tank; you may have a tempered glass screen protector.

    ok so now how do i know if my sunglasses are fully polarized? im not getting a full blackout of the screen with neither the glass in front of it, or looking directly at the screen. i am getting a very dark bluish color, but not completely blacked out, i can still see the outlines of certain things. this is both looking at the screen directly and when the screen is behind the glass, its the same.

    • @johnterpack3940

      Probably best to get a cheap polarized sheet or even camera filter so you know what you have. Plus, those would be flat and not have the distortion of the curved sunglasses.

    So if the glass is temperd it has lines if it's not tempered glass it goes completely black? It's so Confusing

    • @Davelembo
      @Davelembo  7 лет назад

      Stephen Stewart I know bud. Tempered glass will not black out. Regular glass will act the same as no glass.

  • @frankielofaro4778
    @frankielofaro4778 5 лет назад +2

    I tried 5 different glasses that all said they were polarized but I ever got a full back out when I was testing it out

    • @Davelembo
      @Davelembo  5 лет назад

      You may want to try a different screen on a different computer or phone. I use my Galaxy 8 and a $20 pair of sunglasses. I do it right in the store before I buy the tank

    OK, I am hear to tell you that this is not a valid test. I did this on the sides of a fish tank. It passed your test, the polarized filter went all black. BUT, when I tried to cut the glass, it shattered. Both the front and back long sides where tempered. But the end sides were not tempered and I am getting ready to test the bottom glass.

      I think it would even work with a phone, in a bag, in a full tank. I'll get on it

    Tempered Glass = Light Comes through on Polarized?
    Glass Drillable = Light COMPLETELY blacks out
