Rimless tanks evaporation risks...

By rimless, I’m guessing open top? Depends on your circumstances. In a well ventilated centrally heated modern house it’s not usually a problem at all. But if the house has problems with damp and condensation etc, it’ll only make conditions worse.

Agree, if you have a unheated, cold or damp room to start with then avoid open top.
With open top tanks, other than a bit more condensation on the windows during winter no problems.
The ceiling not affected and no pests / bugs seen or attracted by it.
Think open top tanks look so much better in most situations.

Look into have a PIV installed if you’re having troubles with damp and condensation.
25l evaporated from my tank last week with cooling fans above it keeping the temperature at 24° but the window was open so no problems.
As mentioned above, I think the only time you will see a problem is if the tank is in a naturally cold house with not much ventilation where the vapour will generally condense on the coolest surfaces.
Cheers!
