No idea, and looks like starphire tank wont work out either. I would have to buy a kit of 5 tanks for over $200 with shipping. So I may just DIY it since ive got a bunch of 6mm glass laying around.

I'd just hit up a standard 10 gallon tank and cut off the plastic trim

Thats what Im using right now, its about $30ish for 10G in this town. I can get a new 15 tho.
Half affraid of removing the trim, since glass is so thin. If I can sell my Vertex Illumilux light Ill be buying a mp10 as to get ride of k2 powerhead. Hate things in the tank..

I'd be hesitant to remove the trim on a tank with such thin glass. It looks nice, though.
