Personly, not my cup of tea. Why would you want to look through yet another pain of glass.... the only time i have been a fan of this is when conecting two different tanks as i did many moons ago with fresh water. I basicly used two 49 gal tanks side by side and used 4" acrylic pipe in a "U" shape to conect them. And yes fish would swim through the pipe.

Too many negative comments! I can't understand why, is this not a hobby that should embrace ingenuity? Ideas like this should excite us not incite a forum riot..... Like school yard bully's picking on the new kid- it's a new idea and its really neat.
Bottom line, I would never built it but I will take the time to follow along and enjoy this build as I have watching many others. Good Luck Man- It's A Cool Idea Sent Via The Pirate Ship...

Thanks!! I was going to stop posting because of this. I can understand that this is not for everyone. Low and behold personal taste. What Im not understanding is the comments towards the problems with this tank. It's like they are just out to cut other people's designs and ideas down. Like the guy who said they can't have sumps.... Why not? I have mine hooked up no problem. They can't ask if it can have a sump they tell me. Or tell me that mine leaks worst lol. Never heard of a tank that's a more of a leak proof design. Let me ask you guys something. Do you own one? Cause I do. And all the problems you name off I'm not having.. It's actually been super easy to take care of. Alot better than I thought it would be and I haven't even built the upper tank that will make maintenance even easier. And look 10x better. So with the problems you guys seem to think it has you best stick with reefing and away from engineering

Don't take the negativity to heart it is an interesting design as for my comments where only made to help for back ups to the back ups in case of the worst. Trust me my tanks are not "to code" sort of speak concidering my returns are half way down the tank one oops and I have half my tank water on the floor. It may seem critical towards your design but as I stated I e thought of it and now I'm going to see how it works through you concidering the wife will kill me if I tried.
Do what you do and have fun in the end that is what it's all about Gonna return to my lurking now
