OK so I love the look of a rimless cube tank but the funds right now would never support buying a new tank. But I do have a 50g 48" long tank that has a leak that I need to reseal. So just throwing this out there in case any of you have done this or seen it done. Could I make the 50 a rimless tank or is it just too long and would run into problems with seams leaking? Thanks. 
If you make it idiot proof, someone will find a better idiot!
Well 100g crashed when I moved it. Starting a 50g cube now.

you could do it, but the tank is so long, and the glass thin enough that you'd probably have a 'bow front' if it didn't just blow out a seam.
Was that in there yesterday? Casper--WY windier than ?

Down to a 20, soon to double or nothing
