Looks cool... definitely something different!

I like that tank but it dose have drawbacks:
#1 reason is fish jumping out.
#2 the overflow noise.
I'm sure i could pick this style apart all night but thats not nice. I really do like this system and i am curious if thats a refugium light coming out of the back on the wall or what?
I love the top down view though! not much to say about the water running down the sides like that. The view can't be to clear on the sides and that would make me nuts.
I think my most concern is the fish ending up carpet surfing.

burning2nd · 01-29-2007, 09:24 PM

not to mention how the hell do you clean the corners?

looks killer tho,

probly lots of time cleaning glass

dne63 · 01-29-2007, 09:37 PM

well maybe I'm missing something but I've downloaded the brochure and I can't figure out how the fish would get out and as far as cleaning it seems to be simple

PhilOlsen · 01-29-2007, 09:42 PM

Thats VERY cool, I dont think claaning would be a issue but with no top I could see how fish could take "the big jump"

Dentoid · 01-29-2007, 10:36 PM

Incredible! I agree with the cleaning aspect. It's a big enough chore cleaning four walls. It's eight with this tank. I can see fish all over the floor though. If you notice, there were no fish in the tank in that link. Hope someone chimes in that has real life experience with this beauty.

I seen this tank at MACNA a couple of years ago in Boston and it's an incredible looking tank and actually quiet ! One of the problems of this tank is if your have children or visitors the tendency would be to touch the water and any spraying in the room or carpet freshner would be a problem.

Frankie · 01-29-2007, 10:53 PM

It was probably quiet from all the people in the room at MACNA but in the video i can hear it very good. But i trust what you have to say cheeks. You always have good stuff to say. Thats a good point on people touching the water.

Yeah now that I noticed the video it does appear to be quite loud. I will tell ya one thing everyone that I saw approach the tank the first inclination was to touch the water. They had some very expensive livestock in it and it was being closely watched.

All I need to say is I have 3 cats.
Looks nice though. I too would fear fish jumping.
