check out Marinelands site. I believe they are the current makers of Perfecto tanks.

http://www.marineland.com/sites/mari...t.aspx?id=1898

and Aqueon (ne: AGA) glass tanks info can be found here:

Sorry, I may have confused you earlier. Is the tank an Aqueon (AGA) brand? see the revised link above for their info. They say the bottom panels of their 120's ARE tempered.
