300g + DAS tank. Because of its odd dimensions, I believe it's little over 300g. There are several interesting features in this brand that I haven't seen in others.

1. Level Adjusters (Not pictured): at the base of the stand are level adjusters. I put styro board underneath to balance the tank. The base of the stand is lined by a flat wood board too.

2. Canopy?: What appears as a canopy is in fact part of the tank. The glass extends to the very top when you look inside. This is good since I've been having problems with my fish splashing water during feeding time.

3. Glass bracing: With glass bracing, there is nothing that will obstruct lights.

4. Black Silicon seal: I like how sharp they look. Lines are straight and perfectly even. Best sealing I've ever seen.

5. Openings at the top back. See the pics.

6. Double return hole/pipe (not pictured): There are three holes at each base of overflows. One big drain hole, two smaller return holes.

7. Divided Lids (not pictured): There are six lids at sit at the top that can be individually removed. Inner sides are lined with waterproof vinyl.

8. Supportive Rubber Strips at the tank base: You can see the rubber strip in the second pic, where the base is clear. The bottom of the tank is lined with wood, with rubber strips between the glass and wood bracing.

Enjoy the pics! BTW, is there anyone who could lend me a shop vacumm? There's whole lot of debris and salt leftover I have to take out. If you can help with this, I will offer two powerheads. ;)

Thats a sweet looking tank. Never really seen one like that.
 
you getting an aro?
you may not see much of it with the tank going all the way uplike that. keep the water level a little lower.
 
oh never mind i thought that this was in the aro forum, my bad.
an aro would still be a good ideas tho.
 
the water can only go to the bottom of the wood. then there are glass peices that lay across for his lights. look in the second pic

Haha, the water will rise as high as the overflow.

Yeah, I've got three aros. See my signature.
 
yah gourami, if u look at the pics, the water level wont go really up into the wood area. and one of his main reasons for this tank is for the 3fter he's bringin home on monday!!! nice tank man, i have zero doubts in u now. awesome pick up and ur fish will be very very happy
