zero edge
 
i just found this to be an amazing picture of a reef tank with no edges, water fills up over the top of all 5 sides of the tank, and into a water catching tray to circulate.
this is just one photo many more on thier website.

Liveaquaria had a sweet one set up at macna last year.
I think there acrylic and i cant imagine how fustrating cleaning both sides of all those pannels would be

Yeah I've seen a couple zero edge tanks. None of them were the real thing, all DIY. But they are all beautiful! If I had space for a freestanding tank, that's what I'd go with.

glad to see others found interest in the tank, im curious to see one live now.
Even at their prices its a fair deal.

I know someone who has one, and they say it's awful to clean, and it needs cleaning often otherwise the water doesn't come over the edges very nicely.

i suspect your probably right on the cleaning, not such a good deal for me then.
Im not a very glass type of cleaning fanatic.

Sounds like it's right up my alley then! :mrgreen:

EDIT:... As a side note, that is one MASSIVE torch coral!

Josh strives to find a tank that he can continuously glass on:razz: Very cool looking when they are spotless...a magfloat would be 50% useless, unless you get your hands wet:mrgreen:
