Looking good, and cool dive pics! But I though a rimless tank didn't have bracing??

Thanks guys, ya i really wish i went on that trip. sadly my mom didn't allow him to dive to much that trip but he is already wanting to go back for a week of diving. first thing he did when he got back was tell me to get my padi lol

fooser- i don't bring much when i travel, could always stick ou in my bag lol

sphelps - ya when i orginally panned the tank it was suppost to be a rimless, i guess i should change that to eurobraced since i changed my mind in the ordering process

I was just more curious than anything, as I agree rimless is a misleading description. I would personally call a tank:
without black trim, trimless
without bracing, braceless
with water constantly overflowing the sides, rimless or edgeless.

I'm not sure who originally thought of the "rimless" tank but I wouldn't call him/her the smartest person in the world. "Hey lets remove the BRACING and call it RIMless" said the douchebag

All kidding aside I think you made the right choice going with the euro brace, thinner glass = higher clarity.

Really when it comes to terms, its just a name to me and i don't make a deal out of it. But the tank was designed mostly by red coral (kevin) i gave him an idea of what i wanted and he basically perfected it.

So i guess its time for an update

tonight i am just finishing up sealing my piping and i started to fill my tank with ro water (which is taking forever). I decided not to have it running till i got back from van because it was just 1 more thing for me to worry about while being away

Also while i was in Vancouver I took a trip to J&L. Picked up a Tunze Turbelle Deluxe Multi Controller and 2 Turbelle Nanostream 6055 powerheads. I honestly can't wait to play with this.

To make this post interesting I also met a very respected fellow while i was on the island visiting a friend. So i was in duncan and my friend brought me to this shop that had coral. Noticed that they had Tailored Aquatics in stock so i was explaining something to him when one of the fellows working came up and started talking about the product. ended up being the brad from TA which i had a good laugh after because he totally caught me off guard.

So right now i am hoping Feb 1st my tank is in decent shape and almost finishing cycling. So anyone reading, i am setting up another wicked order than.

Kind of a silly club to have considering all tanks have a rim.. LOL whethers it a black manufactured one or the true rim of the glass.. every tank has rim..
