One of the strangest tank designes I'd seen in a long time.... Scraping
the mirroring off with a paint scraper shouldn't be too difficult... If
you're really concerned with the plastic trim (I'm not sure why you are,
it is just trim, and unimportant ot the tank...) you can pop it off by
sliding a razoar blade _carefully_ around the edge of the tank, under the
trim. It should then pop right off. Scrape off the old mirroring (I
don't know, you might be able to use a razoar blade easier than a paint
scraper here, too.) and ptu the trim back on with silicon sealant.
