I have a much smaller tank (40 Breeder) and did not want the black rim, so I removed it. I did not like the look of the skinny glass edge on the top either, so I added 2" wide euro-bracing. LOVE the look of the euro-bracing! I was very carefull to mask either side of my silicone bead so that I have a consistent thin bead. Looks way better than the black trim and I don't have to worry about glass flex.
No photos sorry. The files got deleted accidentally.
