Starfire sizes
Is it true that starfire glass panels can only be bought up to 5 feet long?

Starphire might be a bit less structurally sound, but I'm sure they can make it up in glass thickness. I'm pretty sure I have seen tanks with larger than five foot Starphire panels used.

I have low iron glass, not the name brand starfire, but starfire is a good quality low iron glass. I believe a even bigger problem may be that it does not come in 3/4 if you have a deep tank. It was for me so I made my tank with low iron starfire like glass, available in any size.
