Looking at WA earthquake activity, most are under 2 of magnetude with some going up to 4. with silicone between the glass and iron, I wouldn't worry for the earthquake. In a tank, I'm sure a wavemaker make more pressure than a 4 M earthquake.
As far as drilling the glass, it's not that hard. He could have all the plane tempered if it make it more secure.
Basicly, he want to do what I suggest but Acrylic instead of Iron.
