Rimless for the long haul

[kenjung]

Is there anyone with rimless tank over 50g for the long haul over 5 years, I am skeptical of rimless tank for the long haul. My current set up is 400g Acrylic with 3/4 panel and top brace I had it for 8 years with normal wear and tear, I like to take vacations so tank has to last. I am looking at IM and Red sea but scare of them for long term, my tank go through abuses power head pushing water, cleaning algae.

I'd probably look at the Red Sea Reefer-S G2 series then, ie: S-850 or S-1000 (both have Euro bracing in addition to the armored seams).

my 2 cents...
I had a RS 650P seams started to bubble RS replaced it right away I traded the new one for some tile work. then order the IM 200 with euro bracing.
if RS had a peninsula S1000 i might have done that too. but even tho i have got a few tanks from them they would not tell me if the play to do the S 1000 in a pen. so i went with IM.

now for you question and its a goon one. I think* and it pure guessing I think it all depending on the stand. I would like to what other say.

PS: I also like vacations too. so tanks need to be built proof.

PSS: hows the acrylic tank? would you go that way over glass again?
