![]() Bowfront is one tank I personally wouldn't buy myself. They do look nice but I have heard too many problems with them and even store bought manufactured bowfront tanks included!

![]() The tank I ordered is 60" X 24" X 30" high with the Chinese version of Starphire glas on 3 sides, and in 5/8" / 16mm thick glass, and David is going to the assembly, gluing and drilling the sump here. So it's 187 gallons, my first reef tank, and will use a 75 gallon sump underneath. So i'm glad, majority of you people didn't have horror stories other than the person with the bow front.

![]() Yah I bought a 40 gal for my sump and on the 2nd day running it sprang a leak. Almost everything I have purchased from their has broke pretty fast. If there is one thing I have learned in this hobby, its that you get what you pay for. I enjoy paying more money knowing that I have purchased a superior product and that I wont be replacing the item in the near future.
