my LFS had used ATM for a frag-like tank. it was suppose to be 72x?x14" but ATM built it 75". They had already built this fancy stand for the tank to be seated right in, but at 75", it was too big. So they had to end up laying a piece of wood underneath and the tank sat over the entire stand. They also screwed up on the center overflow. I think my LFS had to drill his own holes, I forgot exactly what ATM did/didnt do.

The tank is 1" and it bows a lot. The only bracing it has is the triangles in the corners though.

It was $2800 and the LFS was not every happy with the outcome of the tank. He complained about the bubble around the edges too.

With that said, I've also seen some really nice tanks by ATM on the Large Reef Section.
