Thats what Im using right now, its about $30ish for 10G in this town. I can get a new 15 tho.
Half affraid of removing the trim, since glass is so thin. If I can sell my Vertex Illumilux light Ill be buying a mp10 as to get ride of k2 powerhead. Hate things in the tank..

I'd be hesitant to remove the trim on a tank with such thin glass. It looks nice, though.

Nice looking stand! I see you even made a cut out for the controller. I was thinking of removing the trim on my 10g earlier on in my thought process but after seeing how much silicone is holding it on and how thin the glass is I decided to live with it and use a plastic canopy that I had for it. I have a glass top as well that I may have to use if I decide to use a hanging LED fixture that I have or just go topless.

My supplyer always has great stuff I also agrree, would never remove the trim from a 10gal tank. to risky. and yes you should go topless with your tank and some trype of hanging fixture :-D just remember to make/get top off system. evap is crazy..
