Is this an acrylic tank? I don't see any seams at the front corners. I love flatback hexes.

That's a hawkfish of some kind isn't it?

Yeah, it's a Tenecor acrylic tank. No seams on the front corners. It's really neat but like everyone else, I think I need a bigger tank!

I like the flat back hexes as well, but I hate the sump area. You really lose a lot of space for the reactors, controllers, ATOs, etc. It just feels really crammed and I have a spiderweb of wires.

It is a spotted hawkfish and one of my favorite fish. He's really friendly and always staring at people when they look in!
 
Are spotted hawkfish known to eat crustaceans like the flame hawkfish? I think my flame hawk has killed my cleaner shrimp and emerald crab. Maybe I should go with a spotted hawk.
 
Whats the dimensions on the 2 panels that connect the angled panels to the front panel?
