cylinder update
 

We just are finishing up a nice tank for a customer, here are some pics.... the one pic is too yellow, not very good with camera, and need better one. The second pic is a decent night shot. will have 3 shark tanks done around spring, Ill post pics. This tank is in a tanning salon, it is getting more fish every week.

Nice tank. Pics are kinda big though.... :smile:

would be neet to have a tank like that but you would need a very large room to pull it off.

yeah cylinders take up a good chunck of floor space... I might be getting a 7' diameter cylinder that is only 24" tall, would make a nice walk around reef

omg thats awesome
thanks for sharing

:eek: Very nice!

Looks like a center overflow in there, did you have to make a curved door for the stand to access underneath the tank?

I'm almost as interested in the stand and canopy building process as the tank itself! :biggrin:

Very interesting and nice display. I kind of think though, that it is somewhat more appropriate as a "public" or "semi-public" (aka "professional") display piece than as a personal tank though. I don't know why ... ordinarily I am quite nuts about multi-angle tanks but the thought of a cylinder in my house somehow worries me about the cost and maintenance ... for one, I'd be afraid to scratch the acrylic. I suppose scratches in acrylic aren't the end of the world though since they can be buffed out.

Vey nice work :cool:
Everytime i see a cylinder tank I want one,but the cost usually changes my mind :biggrin:

Most impressive! What lighting do you have on this system?

how do you scrape the glass in a cylinder?
