    JBs 110g Rimless Build - Tank finished, about to ship

    That's the filter basket that flexible drain pipe is connected to. I'll most likely get rid of it and just pipe PVC drain into skimmer chamber.

    I have a rimless GLA too! I'd ditch that box, it really limits the flow into your sump and just causes salt creep.

    All my tanks have been GLA. The owners are really nice and offer good prices. Its no elos, or Reef Savvy, but you get what you pay for. The edging on the glass isn't perfect, and the seams aren't as straight as the aforementioned tanks. I don't really like the the stands but thats just cause I like modern rimless tanks. However, for half the price they are quite nice.

    Is yours using 3/8" glass?

    Looks like the house was built around that tank. Very nice!
