I like the look of the 45° angle seams in the rimless low iron glass aquariums but I would like it if they made a rimless tank with a completely sealable glass lid that was completely clear from the front and top view to keep me from losing my snails again and also let in all the light for my plants and not yellow or become opaque over time, but not be too obtrusive in its design, maybe a flat outer glass rectangle with a bead of silicone just inside the edge to help collect the condensation in one place and provide a place for it to drip down inside the tank to prevent water from beading up all over on the lid and dripping down the outside of the tank and with a second openable part of the lid being another rectangle of glass in the centre of that other piece of glass as the lid door on a clear hinge and clear handle so that it looks more like one flat piece of glass across the top just like the sides are sheets of clear glass but so it doesn’t have the problems with dripping out of the tank as I would if I just set a sheet of glass over the top of the aquarium or finding a place to put the lid when I take it off and also doesn’t look out of place with the rimless tank aesthetic design, but it’s fully secure to escaping snails and fish and I can just drill out only precisely the amount of glass I need to have removed at the corner for my airline tubing and heater cord to barely fit through, I would also like it if the bottom of the tank was supported by a clear frame underneath of it so it didn’t matter as much if the shelf or stand I was using was wire or if the wood warped slightly after I dripped a little water on it, but again not compromising on the rimless tank aesthetic. I am currently looking for a 13”x13”cube 12”tall tank to fit on a wire rack shelf, I have that much room for it but I haven’t been able to find something with those dimensions, the closest thing I have been able to find for what I’m looking for is the aqueon six gallon cube that has a bottom black frame no top frame a partly glass partly plastic lid that looks like it might have a few gaps I would need to fill in and colour changing led lights along the inside of the bottom frame that I don’t need and probably also unnecessarily increases the price, it’s a 12” cube so I will probably end up getting that one because it fits most of my requirements and it’s not entirely out of my budget if I save up for it for a few months.
@MissMeganBeckett • I just wanted to see if you have seen the newest UNS aquariums ....PRISIM 😍hat have a 45 ° angle lid with a hole cutout in the center. They have 3 sizes 3.5 , 5.9 & 9.7 gallons . That would guarantee a forever home for any snail or jumping shrimp , fish or crab . Hopefully you can get one 💙💚
