I have doubts because its a bowfront. if it was a regular flat glass panels, i would say yes. but considering the number of incidents of leaking bowfronts, removing the center brace may only contribute to and increase the possibility of a leak.

There appears to be no tension on the brace, as is is quite flexible.
Most of the bracing appears to be accomplished by the solid one piece trim running around the top of the tank
Obvoiously this would void any warrenty on the tank, but I bought it used anyway!
any one think this is a bad idea? I want to pull it as it really is interfearing with my new halide setup!
If I DONT remove the brace, which type of reflector would BEST help with the shadow caused by the brace (It is currently a bell type pendant)
