Some of yall might have seen these tank already but this is the first time i have seen them. I have not made up my mind on which model i want but i think i would be happy with any. Here is the link for the site for those that have not seen them. http://www.zeroedgeaquarium.com/

yea those are pretty cool, my lfs has one. its sweet, really different looking and pretty much silent. but they said u cant have fish in there. and u have to keep a close eye on snails.

Joel Neal · 05-20-2007, 07:31 PM

yea i was wondering about the snails and fish but the video shows fish. IDK...... i was also wondering about algea build up on the outside of the tank. What else do yall think about the set up? Comments or concerns? Thanks

the only other thing is that for it to work right it has to be PERFECTLY level. if its out the smallest bit it will overflow to one side and look stupid

Joel Neal · 05-20-2007, 07:43 PM

Yea........... i did not even think about that! That might prove to be a little tricky.

Some one had one for sale last week on TRT.

does the water just overflow on the sides. i think it would get old after awhile

Joel Neal · 05-20-2007, 09:07 PM

yes it overflows on all four sides.... maybe it would get old, idk...but where else are you going to see something as unique as this set up? I thought for all the people who had not seen this that it would be very impresive. We will see what everybody thinks before i make the move.

Looks cool, but you have twice the surface area to clean.

Nice tank, Costly too!

Joel Neal · 05-20-2007, 09:11 PM

yes i have thought about that also. that is without a doubt one drawback.

thekid55 · 05-20-2007, 09:23 PM

go for it. and show us some pics

My fish store has one set up, it's really nice but any little blip on the edge and the water doesn't flow right - they had to have the company come and sand the edge because it was too rough... The water isn't perfectly clear on the sides in real life... And the one employee said it's a real mess when you do anything anything anything to the tank...

How does the gas exchange take place? How would you light it?
