WOW this could be hard on the eyes!

Anybody seen one of these in person? seems to me it could distort more than a bowfront?
might look good though?

Just another way to charge more money for the same water volume. saltwater never causes rust!!!

I've seen one and it's OK,but what would be cool!,is to have a bow in the middle with one wave on each side of it!

I have seen those tanks at my LFS for sell. I almost bought one but they had a sale on the 72 gallon bow fronts so thats when i went with the bow front. I keep looking at them waiting for them to have sell on them and i might consider getting one.

i agree with arizona, the regular bowfronts are better looking. though i haven't actually seen the wave tank filled up all nice, just on display at petsmart.

I have seen them but think it needs to be in the right place to look good, I like the regular bowfronts.

Sorry, I don't get what the purpose of the wave in the tank is for.... isn't one side much narrower in depth than the other?? Would aquascaping be hard in this kind of tank? JMO...

It would make aquascaping and water flow a challenge.

I think they're neat, but overpriced.
I've only seen for about 1k for tank/stand/light. At first i really liked it, but more i looked, less i liked it.
I'd go w/ 90 bow instead, but thats me
