I am having a hard time finding rimless aquariums these days. I really liked the Mr. Aqua and Aquamaxx options, but they don’t seem to make anything over 22 gallons anymore. I had a Mr. Aqua 48 years ago that I loved. I am looking for something that is close to a 40 breeder footprint. Where should I look?

Edit: I had a 48 gallon Mr. Aqua a number of years ago that I loved

48yr ago I was 12 and most tanks were Metaframe (with metal frames) and around that time or slightly before, the All Glass design came out….wondering if that’s a typo or can you clarify… just
curious not challenging you…
I’m looking also… my thoughts are one of the custom build companies
 
Check out Fiji Cube. They make make many different tanks not just cubes. I have one and its as nice as any other I have seen.

I like that Fiji Cube 48 gallon shallow -- never noticed that before.
Kinda 40 breeder-ish

Now if I just had somewhere to put it and an extra $1600 (full kit)...
 
Not pushing the Fiji Cube 48 gallon shallow or BRS (since I've never used either) but...

Dimensions do feel a bit like 40 breeder that you mentioned, similar height, just deeper but not as wide.

BRS looks like they have tank only at $790,,, not sure of your budget goal:

They definitely exist because tanks like that are used by the freshwater people!

Check out ultra nature system. Their tanks are just gorgeous! They come in many shapes and sizes. I know Bruce plant sells some online but you may be able to find a local store to order one for ya.

 
I have a 40 Breeder Seapora rimless low iron tank that I am very happy with. Good quality for the price. Your LFS can order it. See my build thread.

UNS makes absolutely gorgeous tanks. I've some of the drilled builds here and they are without a doubt some of the cleanest build threads.
