Good idea or bad?

I saw one on one of the boards a while back, but cannot remember any of the specs.

Great.....looked at the link, nice set up.

Anyone else....any cons with not going with a more traditional shape?

I would think water flow would be pretty tough.

Iâ€™ve got one that isnâ€™t as symmetrical as the one pictured. It was custom made for the space. Iâ€™ll try and post pics. soon. I think it can have some real advantages depending on your viewing angle.

great look forward to the pics.

I'm thinking through the flow.

I was wondering if you were looking at the tank face on...one part would say be 30" deep and the other part would be say 72" deep.....does it look odd.....is one side not as clear as the other because of the amount of water you'd be looking through?

thanks.........can't wait for the pics
