Default zero edge

i just found this to be an amazing picture of a reef tank with no edges, water fills up over the top of all 5 sides of the tank, and into a water catching tray to circulate.
this is just one photo many more on thier website.

Yeah I've seen a couple zero edge tanks. None of them were the real thing, all DIY. But they are all beautiful! If I had space for a freestanding tank, that's what I'd go with.

I know someone who has one, and they say it's awful to clean, and it needs cleaning often otherwise the water doesn't come over the edges very nicely.

Sounds like it's right up my alley then!

EDIT:... As a side note, that is one MASSIVE torch coral!

Josh strives to find a tank that he can continuously glass on Very cool looking when they are spotless...a magfloat would be 50% useless, unless you get your hands wet
