Bow Back Tank Idea...

Has anyone experimented in turning a bow front tank the other way around, so the bow is at the back?

Why would you do that? *Awkward look*

lol :p
So has anyone ever tried this?
I guess not.. LOL!

I was just toying with the idea when my wife mentioned to me that my tank would look great in the wall in our kitchen. But I wondered what the view would look like from the flat side, because it is a divider wall, so both sides would be visible.

anyways.. I think i'll scratch that idea.
I know it's slightly bad form to post a link to the 'other' forum. However, your question is just too, too similar to what this other hobbiest is just now posting about:

Great journal w/ good photos too.
it might make sense if you had a bulky rock or wood formation in the back, then wanted to keep your square front for foreground plants. keep in mind that bow front tanks often use a clearer grade of materials in front only, so viewing through the flat back might be a waste.
