most expensive aquariums per gallon

[brich999]

ive always appreciated the beauty of high end rimless tanks and i know how expensive tanks can be from top companies like elos, zero edge, etc. i know ADA is the golden standard in basic glass boxes and was cruising one of the ada distributors websites and came across these... http://www.adgshop.com/Cube_Garden_Superior_s/120.htm

ARE YOU KIDDING? thats 3200 for an 18g tank gor a mere 178 per gallon!?!?4" cube is a steal at 500 bucks

just thought id share as i literally couldnt believe it wasnt a typo. next time i complain about silicone... i just wont.

It is cool how it's glass and they still made it seamless though, that takes a pretty talented craftsman to do.

Id imagine its quite difficult to "weld" glass and I know the exchange rate doesn't help with japanese products, but wow. Am I wrong to assume a glassblower with a kiln can do this? Id take a museum quality acrylic tank with beveled welded seams at about 25% of this cost
