kenYO Posted February 18, 2007 Author Share Posted February 18, 2007 Another view from home office, at a lower angle emphasize on the cantilever or "hangover" rock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenYO Posted February 18, 2007 Author Share Posted February 18, 2007 Now come to the exciting part- Rimless (bracless) tank with 15mm thk glass . The tank maker use OC German Black Silicone (same as Deltec tank) & the polishing edges is very well done. Right at the end is the internal overflow with Aqua Medic Overflow Comb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenYO Posted February 18, 2007 Author Share Posted February 18, 2007 top view... IMO this is the best angle to enjoy SPS tank That's the reason why I want a low cabinet & bracless tank, overall height of the aquarium is only 4.5ft tall waiting for tank maker to delivery the acrylic cover for the overflow to conseal the wire after CNY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
