So rimless tanks look amazing, but why doesn't everybody have one? Is there an issue with them or something?

Thanks!

My 75 is rimmed, but it was a throw away tank and it leaked....I had to reseal it, and I bet if it was rimless it would have neve survived the original leak.....

Eek! I will probably get a rimmed then...

Trimmed/eurobraced tanks are stronger due to the extra reinforcement. Also, some people like the black trim/eurobraced look.

Rimless tanks are nice, but personally I like the trim - it hides the waterline so your tank really does look like a slice of the ocean.
