Default Top shop for a custom tank

Pretty straight forward...

If you were going to have a glass tank built today, euro bracing, internal overflow, starfire front panel.....

Who would you have do it?

Thanks!

+1 on Concept.

Question though. Why internal overflow, why not external? Looks way cleaner and takes up no room in the tank = more room for coral.

The tank is a replacement for an existing tank, so needs to fit into the stand, previous plumbing etc.

Not ideal, but what is requested!

Fair enough. It would still fit on the stand though. If the bulk heads are cemented to the plumbing now they will have to be cut off and plumbig replaced anyway, just a thought.

I second this. If you are having to build a new tank anyways, now is the time to make changes. I am swapping my tank over tonight to the tank I just build with an external... and oh man is this thing a beaut! Very haapy with the external overflow.

I had my custom 30x24x24 rimless tank built through Wendell at Ocean Aquatics in Delta. Been in service for nearly two years, happy with the build quality.
