    Default Glass cages

    Does any one have any experience with their glass aquariums?

    Default RE: Glass cages

    i have one. cant beat the price, but you get what you pay for. the glass on one side of my tank has flaws (a little wavy) which are a little annoying when looking at the tank from the end. the silicone job was a tad sloppy, and the overflows were a tad too short - the water level was just below the bottom of the molding until i added eggcrate on top of the overflows.

    you cant see the flaws when looking thru that pane of glass - only when you look at the reflection inside the tank on that pane of glass thru the end. for my tank, a 240 gal (8'X2'X2'), you would not be able to find anything close to the price of glasscages - $570 reef ready.

    Yup. I paid nearly that much for a Oceanic 156g that was used. Not complaining on how much I paid for mine though. Its exactly what I wanted
