65g Wide Rimless

[dvskin21]

Hey guys, I finally got a pic of my 65wide rimless.. The dims on the tank are 36"Lx24"Wx17"T. I purchased the tank from Glasscages. starfire on the front and sides. I built the stand myself, nothing special though.... I used 3/4" metal conduit to hold the lights over the tank. I got 250 hqi XM 20k's for now, I really liked how the 175's looked on me last tank. I will be running a closed loop and a 15 gallon sump w/ a coral life skimmer (for now..) You really cant see it in the pic, but the left back corner of the tank has the overflow, the cool thing is, I built the overflowbox so it doesnt go all the way to the bottom of the tank, it only goes down 7" into the tank. this way I can still utilize the whole footprint of the tank... Thats really bout it.. here's a crappy pic (celly)

Cool, very similar to what I want to do. How do you like the tank? I am considering ordering a sqaure rim less reef ready 40 or 60 with starfire glass from them, how did you like working with them?

The tank itself is great. No complaints. I've even contacted other customers of theirs and they have all told me the tanks were built very solid.. So I'm not worried about that. As far as dealing w/ them, lets just say they are severly lacking in the customer service dept.. I waited for 3 months for the tank 2 come in broken on the truck (the delivery point was an hour away from my house) And then 2 more months for the next delivery date.. Also, almost all of the stands that they pulled off the truck (I didnt order one) were dinged to hell, and needed a sanding and painting...just my $.02
As far as the ninja turtles, You know it!!!!
