SEXY. The shallow reef will be easier to light and work in, plus it is so awesome to be able to look top-down into the tank. Can't wait to see this build thread.

I like it but I really think you should consider euro-bracing it the whole way around.

I thought about this but euro bracing would take away the whole open top thing. This will be a very unique system. One of a kind. KWIM Since this is 3/4" acrylic one center brace should do. But if i need to add some triangular corner braces i will.

My shallow reef is euro-braced and it doens't take away from the top at all. My tank is only 48"X24"X12" and the eurobrace adds about a 3" lip around the entire tank. I'll try to take pictures of it and show you.
Yeah I think it will be risky with that much water volume and no top support. Can't wait to see it up and running.
