yeah, glasscages gets mixed reviews. i know several locals that have tanks from them & they are great.

i personally would recommend the following. they are one price par (tad higher) than GC, but their work is amazing. very easy to deal w/ as well. give Ty a call or email before commiting to glasscages.....i think you'll be happy w/ them

Hi there,

After learning and experimenting. I have come to the conclusion that building my own rimless tank is not an option. I have no tools, time, or the skill. I did more research and have have found a place that seems cheap enough to buy a rimless tank:

Anyone had done business with them or knows of their work quality? I am thinking on going with their 80 Cube (Rimless).

Thank you for your thoughts.

I have one (GC) and it's nice for the money. I was coming off a bad experience with my ZeroEdge so money was not plentiful at the time. I had zero issues with build time and delivery. The order process was smooth as well. The silicone job is not to great and the polish job on the edges is wavy as well. It's definitely not a Elos or a Miracles, but it holds water and looks decent. I priced a 36x24x18 from many companies earlier this year GC was not the cheapest. If I'm not mistaken "Ocean Aquarium Products" was and Elos being the Highest. GC was the second cheapest and Miracles was very close to GC even with shipping. Hope it helps.

Tom, great tank! I'm looking forward to your next one.
Timmy, great job with those LEDS. I love that spotlight effect.

does anyone have a list of fish to stay away from when owning a rimless. I would hate to lose fish from jumping.

Or, does anyone have an idea on how to keep fish from jumping.

 

[shandy_say]

Fish that are prone to jumping our are wrasses, anthias, blennies, dart fishes, and gobies. As long as they aren't harrassed by other fishes I don't think they'd jump out.

Re-aquascaped since I last posted in here, few shots from different angles. I am happy with how the tank is running now so I will be adding alot more corals in the near future.
