cheetum Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 At the risk of sounding like a rookie What the heck is a brick reef ???!!! I've seen it referenced on several forms and for the life of me can't figure it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishypets Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 It's a tank with no centerbracing. These tanks typically have thicker glass to make up for the lost support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caferacermike Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 And will sometimes have odd dimensions that help them support the weight. IE: they may not come as a typical 125g set up because they are to long and narrow, but may come as a 220 because they are long, low, and wide.

princer7 Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 My 215 is a brick style tank. One benefit is no center brace to deal with when placing your ligths - no added heat or light blocking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmanning Posted December 27, 2008 Share Posted December 27, 2008 We have a 215 ..... one of the reasons we decided to have a brick style tank, no more scraping the algae from middle brace. Ditto what princer7 said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
