SCA with synergy ghost overflow, eurobraced or rimless?

[fishybizzness]

Hello all, I'm in the process of upgrading to a SCA 150. I've already decided to go with the synergy ghost overflow. My predicament is whether to go with the eurobraced tank or the rimless. I'm looking for owners of both styles of tanks to chime in on why they chose the particular style and the pros and cons of their choice. Also, would you go with the opposite choice if you had to do it over. As always, thanks for the feedback.

Also, it doesn't have to be a SCA, my main concern is eurobraced or rimless with the synergy overflow. Thanks

My current SCA150 is rimless and plumbed with synergy 20” overflow which is a big over kill.
My friend has the same tank but euro braced version and it came with the standard overflow plumbed at the bottom. He tried to retro fit a 16” synergy overflow but the euro bracing would force the internal box to be installed too low so he gave up.
Below is a pic of mine and the overflow box and rimless design looks pretty nice in my mind. The glass is thicker for the rimless version too.

You can check my build thread for more pics. It is titled for the 300G Angel and SPS but since the 300 was delayed I started updating the thread with the SCA 150.
