Wow! now that's a tank.  There is just something about the bows that have  that touch of elegance.  It kind of reminds me of a beautfil girl, but the same beatiful girl with a pearl knecklace.  I believe any bow owner will agree that you get that just tad bid of extra warmth when a fish comes to greet you at the center of the bow.  When the fish swim along the glass of the bow its as if a 3d movie jumping off the screen.  My next tank will absolutly be a 72 gallon bow.   Just for some comparision on my end.   What is the height, and the width and depth of your tank?  I have never seen one for sale anywhere, there impossible to find.    If i could go back just a couple months i would of done the 72 gallon bow. 
 
A couple week ago I ran into a guy at the fish store and he was looking at a 5 gallon bow tank, He said he has been playing some game,  fishworld on facebook.  His first tank ah, I remember those days..  He asked me what i thought and i told him i personally believe the bow is the way to go, i did bring him to the 46 gallon bow which im always checking out.  I looked at him, and asked..  Do you have the room for this bow?  Yes i do it would fit with some room to spare.   I said this is your first tank, mine was a 36 gallon bow. When i was done setting up i went out the next day and bought another 36 gallon bow. get the 46 gallon bow.  I always wondered what happened to that 46 gallon bow i used to check out.  I bet the guy is looking for a 72 gallon bow now.
