But I'd be curious to see a really large rimless... only one I can think of is the guy with the 5 foot wide cylinder tank.
i talked to the guys at miracles in glass (and a few other companies) and the tanks aren't that high in price. i think what's helping my price is the fact that the tank is only 20" tall, so they can use 5/8" glass on all sides. well, i think the back is 3/4", but still the total cost for the tank isn't all that bad. i think i was looking at $2500 for a 225 rimless 72x36x20.
