Attention: All tall tank owners, 21" and up, here is a thread to post some pics of your tanks, and setups. I am about to own a 78x24x36"T 300g and noticed that tall tanks are not necessarily the "IN THING" in MFKeeping, or is it just me. Never the less I think i would be a good thing to see what all the other Tall tank owners are doing with that "wasted height" :)

Is 21 inches tall?

hmmmm tall tanks I only have one that fits that it is a tall 168g I only have one picture of it



it is 6 1/2 feet tall at the top 18 inches wide and 3 feet tall. I have toyed with many ideas as to what to do with it.
Nice tank to get something going. hopefully you can subscribe to this thread to get the gears rolling. Like Ken says " An empty tank is a Terrible thing to waste!"

i dont think so, but it wouldnt hurt to ask him to do a test fill. my 6x3x3 is also made out of 3/4" acrylic all around with a double layer lip up top which gives me a completely open top, not common with acrylic tanks
TWO WORDs: DEAD SERIOUS!!!! :headbang2

I love tall tanks I would love to have a 36"+ tall tank but the price jump is just crazy to compensate for the thicker material. Once you start getting into large tanks, they aren't even affordable to the average income person
