The first thing I will do to this tank is add a HOB overflow, and a canopy.

Does anyone have any plans for making a corner tank canopy?
I have a drill press, and a table saw for tools.
i read somewhere that you can use polarized sunglasses to check if it is tempered. of course tank would need to be empty. if it is tempered it would look like a sunroof or back window of a car. i think...i know i read it somewhere.
