    I found these while surfing the net. I dont know anything about it as I do not speak Italian. Thats what I think the language was. They have FW planted tanks like this too. I just thought it was an interesting design and thought I would share.

    That is so cool! I think it has a skilter on it too! I don't know how well the design works as far as water movement, ect., but it certainly looks nifty.

    Looks like it might be difficult to work with.

    Looks like a challenge to get rocks in there and awkward to move things or clean towards the front at the bottom of the tank, but very interesting shape. I like the big viewing angle from the front glass.

    I'm guessing the filters/sump is behind the wall and the outlet from the tank goes through it into the room behind?

    I don't think there's a filter on it. Do like the way it looks
