If you can, you won't regret a rimless aquarium and as always, the bigger the better!

Acrylic is a plus. It's brand new?

Naw being used, with no plumbing by a shop to hold a goldfish. but I'd get it emptied.

I'm actually not a fan of rimless. Snails tend to crawl out and it's a pita to keep cleaned properly.

I'm trying to learn about plumbing and sumps too! Looking forward to following your next build Matt!

Gonna try to get my parents to chip in a couple bucks for the tank since it will be downstairs in the family room, more than likely

Well hopefully friday (payday) I will be getting a new tank, who knows. After bills we'll see what i have left. Either 50 acrylic rimless drilled, 30 gallon cube (needs to be derimmed) or maybe a 90.... hmmmmm

Well with christmas, a throat and ear infection, missing work from that, I don't have enough money RIGHT NOW for the build but should soon

I have a rimless tank and every time I try to clean the glass water comes over the top makes a mess, no matter how gentle and careful I am. I'd never do a rimless again.

This is my first rimless. Love the look, but it can cause issues as noted.
