Default Lighting over 36"x18" tank

All-Glass does not make the 50 gallon with a built in
overflow. 55 g is the smallest that they make with an
overflow. And they also make a 65 with a built in overflow.

Also I just checked with all-glass, and the 50 *does* have
a suport going across the middle.

If you want to do it right with a built in overflow, and
everything, why not go with the 75? that will give you
good front to back space, and you can fit a tank underneath.

oops, that's 65 gallon that has the support in the middle, yours is
only 36" long. If I would just read the subject line :-) hehe



Yes, it will be 50 gallon All-glass with black finish.
I do not think they have support in the middle...
I do not have the tank yet... so I was not sure about the support.

I will try to find one with the overflow built in for sump.

I got the 40 gallon breeder now, but I am not happy with it.
I have already arranged return in the LFS I got it from...
It is too shallow for a DSB. I would like these 2 extra inches
50 gallon tank gives me to move from 16" in breeder to 18" height.

65 gallon tank, 36" x 18" and 24" tall would look little weird...
But maybe I should get the tall one... I have some thinking to do

The whole thing is I do not have room for the 4 - foot long tank.
Also, I want to reuse my 3-foot long stand... :-)
