ACRYLIC TANK!!!
- Thread starter mrdee
- Start date
If they are welded in I wouldn't try to pry them off... Even if you get them off without breaking your tank, it will leave unappealing marks... However you might be able to cut them very close to the tank acrylic. Ugly, but a possible solution for you
Here is a picture of the tank!!! Sorry the pictures are kind of small. There are 4 braces inside the tank. They are chemically bonded edge against the tank, not the flat side. I really hate this look and large fish can sometimes hit it. OWNER SAID HE BOUGHT THE TANK BRAND NEW, LIKE THIS?????? CAN THIS BE TRUE???
Ummm, weird. You can probably cut the acrylic dividers close to where they are bonded, but you don't want to cut them WHERE they are bonded against the outer panels of the tank. So you will have little 1"ish sections of acrylic sticking out instead of spanning across the whole tank. Make sense?
Maybe it was originally intended to be a MONSTER sump?

LOL.........that can be true, but the tank has two built in over flows and most sumps don't. This tank is really weird looking with the 4 large braces!!!
Next step would be to contact an acrylic manufacturer (the original one who did the tank ideally) and ask them your other options. Do you have any acrylic places where you live?
