Braces for a bow front aquarium

[Sadielynne]

I may have asked this before, in a different post, but I am not sure!!

I need some kind of brace, to go from the front of a tank to the back, to try to pull the front and back together. These are 45 gal bow front aquariums, by All-Glass, and the support pieces on the top frames have broken. The fronts and back of several tanks are bowing out a bit and I worry about breakage.

Can a stainless steel piece of metal be bent to make a brace? This would be slid over the back and the front, after water has been removed, thus bringing the sides back to their original position.

Thank you!!

All-Glass aquariums is now Aqueon and I know from experience that if you call them you can actually talk to a human.

You might do just as well ordering a replacement top-frame from them and replacing it rather than repairing it.
