Check out Colorado Plastics for acrylic. Drew, the President, is a great guy!

Was this for aquarium grade glass?

LF ideas. Does anyone else have a cube bigger than 35?

Yes, mine is a 90 gallon cube!

Where'd you get that quote and what thickness of glass? I paid $60 for the baffles of my sump. Biggest piece was 17 7/16 X 16 X 1/2" thick.

For 2x2x2 you'd need at least 1/2" to do rimless, maybe 5/8 if they carry it.

Lowes down here is

You can't use the 1/8" thick glass for a very tall tank.

I got my prices from local shops in noco.

Remember, you'll want at least .5" glass for a 24" tall rimless tank. You can't buy that thickness of glass from Lowes or Home Depot.

I talked to Daniel the other day cause I was interested in a cube I wanted one 24" high 24" wide and 28" deep cause I was going to have him install a black piece of acrylic at 24" so I would have 4" in the back to in stall chambers and room to drill for sump and everything could be hidden behind the back black wall don't quote me but I believe it was in the $500 range which is a steal in my opinion!

Yes Travis that was correct on the cost of the 1/2 inch cell cast acrylic and the black back, but that price was not including the labor.

Found it!! This is my best bet. What do you think about the corner overflow?? Great price also?

[cdrewferd]

That would be a great setup. Corner overflow opens up the rest of the tank.

 

[reefmaster719]

Yeah. That's what I was thinking. I was stuck between back overflow or corner. I wanted the front piece starphire glass. Can you really tell the difference?

 

[reefmaster719]

That's the one I'm going to order and start a build thread. The deep blue cube has starphire low iron glass so its my best bang for the buck.
