Has anyone heard or have vertical euros on their rimless tank? The tank will probably be 54x24x18 Miracles can do this. This should give it much more strength similar to having the tank eurobraced. Pictures would be great if anyone has this. Thanks

Y not get the regular euro brace?(is less expensive since they won't have to use the heavy duty glass) Or completly rimless . Personally I hate the look of cross euros and they get in the way. Ask Derek to send u pictures I'm sure he has some examples

I was told they only go vertically in the corners which still gives the rimless look but adds the strength like a eurobrace. I should not see them from the outside of the tank. I want the rimless look with added strength.

What do you mean by heavy duty glass and cross euros? The glass should still be 1/2 inch.

^ That looks like standard Euro-bracing. Am I missing something?

uh, yah. that's standard euro bracing. I've never heard of vertical eurobracing, nor can I imagine extra glass siliconed in at the corners would look all that appealing.....

In that pic it only shows a eurobraced tank. I was told it is not eurobraced and still retains the rimless look. I will talk to Derek about it tomorrow.

Are you talking about small glass rectangles, that run from bottom to top, that fit in the 90degree joints?

Can you please post some pictures if and when you get them from Derek. I can't quite picture what this would look like.
