I also saw somewhere that the glass is floated on tin as the last step before putting the tank together, and they're supposed to put that side out, but sometimes make a mistake and put the tin side on the inside so you get elevated levels on startup. I could have had loses for some other reason, but that was the only standout on the Triton test.
All sheet glass is float glass. They melt the sand and additives and pour it on a river of molten tin. The glass is then floated down and cooled while stretched to size. This is how they get it flat and a consistent thickness.

Flat earther: the planet is flat and nothing you can say will prove otherwise.
Me: If the earth was flat cats would have pushed everything off the edge already. Also, how would the lizard people live in the middle of the planet if it was flat?

Great now Twitter just flagged lizard people and Elon is going to save his mother, who is the Queen of Lizards, from being found.... my boy Jared from HS is heavily into that stuff.... makes my head spin. Ofcourse maybe that's why he has the Boring company..... to find her..... or are they expanding lol.
