My Christmas presents arrived. Two 30 x 12 x 6 acrylic tanks (76.2 x 30.5 x 15.24cm). Beer bottle for scale. These will be tanks for raising fry on the lowest shelf of my racks.

Re: New tanks arrived!
I guess they are 10 gallon longs? Nice!!
Framed acrylics? I don't see that very often. May I ask how you made that choice?
Cheers, Eric

Lol Eric. Yes the 10 long! They were custom made and, like you, I was surprised they came with rims. That said, the rim size is exactly the same for a 20 long. Since I have several extra 20 long lids it could not have worked out better. Should be great fry grow out tanks.

Re: New tanks arrived!
Thanks for the explanation. I've pondered custom making 20-gal breeders - basically a square (or nearly so, the dimensions of two standard 10 gals side by side) = 20 x 20 x 12 = 20 gal.
Maybe one day.
Enjoy your tanks and your fry.
Cheers, Eric
