The water will flow beautifully provided that the tank is perfectly level. These tanks are generally used for viewing from above. Typical application would be sps and clams. The higher levels of calcium etc makes cleaning a real pain in the a$$. These tanks look great in the beginning but if you get lazy you will have green sides encrusted in coraline not to mention calcium deposits and saltcreep. Not to much fun imo

its a really neat idea but I can see issues with salt creep and algae on the glass. Looks like a sharp tank though. Maybe ment more for display in a LFS. It would take up a lot of space in a standard NYC apartment.

Saw one at MACNA at the ORA booth and it was very cool to like at but even the guys there told me that they didn't think it practical for a home setup. They do look like they would be very difficult to keep clean but who knows. Why don't you buy one and let us know? :D

This type of tank belongs in a store unless you have the room. Everyone always wants to touch the overflowing water (esp. kids). I saw this happen in a store in CT and the employee freaked:supermad:, LOL.:rolleyes: It was kinda funny.

"mommy I wanna touch the clams! :Up_to_som :eek: :smash:

seen these at tradeshows and not many other places. The outside glass should remain "fairly" clean due to the constant flow over it although it does get messed up. The overflow goes around the entire base of the aquarium and since this method increases the surface area you need to combat heavy evaporation. other than all the problems already mentioned they are awesome looking display tanks.
