Looking to do a small cube....just for a fun side project.

Pico Aquariums has them, but they shut down for the summer. (http://picoaquariums.com/)

Do you know if mr. aqua sells the overflow kit? I'd like something drilled through the tank if possible so I don't have stuff hanging off the tank.

Ahhh.. gotcha ;)
Honestly though.. add 2in to each side!! I have a 55g.. and the 18in width is the worst to work with!! its tooooo narrow!!!

I hope you do a build thread !!! I would love to see it !! :bounce3:

My 90 is 18" deep.....I am still debating the size for the cube. 24x24x24 would be nice....but then you are up to 60 gallons!

Also, Marineland makes cornerflow cubes, but they aren't rimless....and I really thing a rimless cube would look awesome.

I was hoping to find just a tank so I can build a system myself - not buy a whole setup.

I am not a fan of the look of the biocubes at all. I am specifically looking for a rimless cube.

Mr. Aqua Cube with Glass-holes overflow. Drill the tank yourself or have a friend do it. That way you don't have a hang on back overflow and don't have to risk losing the siphon.

That's definitely a good option. The solana tanks are close to that size too. I know it's not exactly what you're looking for, but it could be a good fallback

My suggestion was pretty much what Skull stated.

Marine depot has the tank if you want to take a look.

DIY drilling is pretty easy.
