100g Rimless Starfire

Some pictures of my latest project for an up and coming reefer. 100g rimless 3 sided starfire, 1/2" glass and low profile external overflow.

48" x 24" x 20"?? Good luck with the build! One I will want to follow.

How much do you have in the glass? Is all the glass starfire?

 

[Gondore]

Do you build tanks for anyone else

Looks good so far. I'm really tempted to build myself a tank also. Idk.

About the same as my tank. 48x26x20 but mine has internal overflow. Following along to see how it turns out.

I PM'd you. Can you respond when you get a moment?

Sorry I have been super busy everyone. Happy holidays! PM's sent. A few answers. First, I don't know how much the glass would be new. I purchased off a fellow reefer. I do know I spent almost $200 new for non-machine polished 3/8" glass for a 30g rimless last year and that ran me almost $200. I also know it was almost $200 to get the machined edges. So I would guess with this being 1/2" and starfire it would be about $700-$900. I will try and get a price from him. As far as building them, yes I do. I install, maintain etc but don't mention it because of sponsors here.

Is it hard to build it ? Looks really simple crazy how some seal is holding all out livestock in it

It's not necessarily difficult, you just need to be able to source the right materials and make sure it's tight when you get it together. With me building this for someone, I need to guarantee it as I'm at risk for it blowing out in their home.
