Removing the top Molding on tank???

[Larsen]

I have a marineland 150 DD and was wondering if anyone has ever removed there top molding before. I don't believe it is bracing the glass very much. Please let me know what you think and if you have ever accomplished this task. I just want that CLEAN rimless look. Thanks

The trim is structural. Removing it on anything larger than a 10g would most likely result in a cracked tank. It may not look very structural, but I've seen a 29g bust open because someone took the trim off.

Agreed...don't take it off...especially on a bigger tank like that.

+1 not a good idea, there is a reason that people pay primo for rimless tanks ;)
