Do the fish go in the drop area?I know the pics are just a slice in time but it always seems like they are just in the top part.

Really amazing tank though. I love the look of these drop off tanks.

No bowing in the acrylic at all. Going over a year and half now.

Actually the fish normally swim all over the place and most sleep in the deep end.

Thanks for the compliments.

I don't mean to detract from your thread OP, but I found a company that sells drop-offs for those that you may have inspired but are not willing to go the custom route. Looks like smaller tanks, but better than nothing?
