Yes, its a kit from rapidled mounted on a chunk of aluminium flat bar with an acrylic shield.

Thanks man, I try.

When we buy a house I'll setup my 100 gallon again and probably stick with the same type of livestock as before. We also want a larger fish only but that'll depend on the house. Right now we're just renting a condo so this little nano is hopefully going to hold me over for a few more months.

Very eloquent! I like it. I agree, some zoas would look killer in there.

LOVE seeing the Edge done like this! It's a great little tank, and it looks amazing as a saltie!! Nicely done

I was wondering when we'd see a tank thread from you!

Looks great Steve!

I thought at first it was dangerously full but then I realized these edge tanks have tops.

How easy is it to keep the glass clean?

Pretty easy, I just use the small magfloat, works nicely, even on the top. However If at some point I have to get in there with my hand and scrap some edges or hard spots it'll probably suck the big one but at least it's small.

love this tank, i wanted one of the fluval edge tanks before i started mine. what stopped me from buying was that i already had a tank.. and it was free.. i think i'm going to get one over the holidays now especially after seeing this one lol
