Eclipse tanks

[whaase]

Anyone have any experience with the Eclipse line of tanks? Do they scratch easy?

I have two acrylic eclipse, one with fresh water, and one with marine. They are both really small (I have a large glass marine tank too with an eclipse hood) and I haven't had a problem yet with the tank scratching. Even with live rock being put in and out and coming in contact with the sides of the tank. I'm sure they do scratch easy though if you are very rough on them. I like the eclipse filters, so i really do think they are good tanks (in my opinion). I'm sure others have a different opinion on them, but I haven't had problems with mine yet.

My Eclipse 6 has scratches. I was using an acrylic cleaning magnet and as I scraped the bottom of the tank, some aragonite got between the magnets. As I continued to scrape the glass, scratches started to form everywhere.
