Well there would be a way to do it, but you would need glass about 2 inches wide, and about 1/2 thick and the length you need it across the top of the tank. For better support I would take an extra 2 inch pieces the same width and thickness and silicone on the sides where the brace will go let that dry then silicone the strip to those. Let it dry a couple of days before filling to the top of the tank.
