I got the laminated glass option Dave wants to do on yours on my 4' shallow, it looks excellent.

Do you have pics of what it looks like? I’m kind worried about it not turning out that great. I actually don’t mind the acrylic back but it would make it a lot easier to clean.

Wow! It looks great. Well I’m looking forward to having this on my new tank. Looks sleek. Plus added thickness of glass is always welcomed.

Yeah, I believe it was MattyB that showed me a picture of his and I went with it. It did add probably 5% to the cost, but very much worth it vs the acrylic insert. I wish I had gotten the same for the frag tank.

So I found a buyer for my 125 Gallon tank. Now I just have to wait 3 weeks to receive the new tank from Concept. I have to start focusing on items to get this build running and cycling once the tank and sump arrive. I need some rock (macro rock / real reef rock), titanium heaters, power heads (mp40’s or gyre), RODI unit and some salt.

Well I’m glad I decided to go with it. Yah my frag tank will still have the acrylic insert.

Look forward to seeing the build
