yes , we use Sapphire Crystal for our tank , we called it Diamond glass , this thickness is made only for us
Elos can you tell us more about your "diamond glass?" Is it float glass manufactured in Italy? How large of a panel is available and how thick can you go? I am contemplating a monster tank made from glass, and so would like to know what you can offer?

hello , Diamond Glass is the same quality of glass you can find on in Swiss luxury watches , but for reasons of thickness we have the sheets specially made for us.
we can do panels like 12 ft x20 ft " .. , for the thicknesses we have a specific process that gives us the possibility to make double sheets with an internal film for the safety of the panel. Of course we are starting to talk about very high quality, but we have already made 38 mm thick.

I can say you’re living the reefers dream. Custom Elos build top of the line products. I like all except for the scape, to massive and equal for my taste. But hey whom am I. Keep us posted with the progress!

Oh man long time no post. Life has been crazy and tank was neglected for the longest time. Had a friend help me to finally get it back on track.

the initial exotic hammers and acros have all died due to dinos out break. But here the tank seems finally to be maturing. Added some designer acros, some indo donuts, a huge purple blue gig I picked up from my friend Derrick, cc flame tip bubble tip, a 13-14 inch derasa clam(a 2 inch derasa on the right hand side for comparison) and a masked angel.

more things are coming the next few weeks and month.Will be posting hopefully soon again.

Most high end Swiss luxury watches use sapphire crystal, does Elos use sapphire crystal, or does it use a high clarity scratch resistant glass?

Here are some updates on the tank. I think it’s around a year old now this month.
