Help decide next tank

[thirty6]

Boss doesn't feel the 6' tank idea, so I have a wall in family room picked out for next tank: the only thing on this wall will be a tv when the mounting bracket comes in. I like the idea of large cube to left of tv, but bunch of very nice 48" tanks for sale here.... Let me here opinions


Im more into the fish than coral, but would eventually do mixed reef with the tank, sps not in the plans. Have ai sols for lighting and would add more if needed.... Tia

I love big squares 30x30x24

 

[CoralReefer]

I Want to get a big reef savvy cube soon

I keep going back to the cube also

The price jump from the 93 to the 150 steep

Just tell you are ok with 4 120's and leave it at that. She will come around to the 200DD.

 

[thirty6]

That's an idea!

She isn't all that bad about it, sort of need to keep a balance with this one is all

200DD or a 93 Cube....

200DD or a 93 Cube....

ive never actually seen the 150 in person, only in threads here and online. compared to the 93, are the 6" worth the considerable amount of money it costs above the price of the 93?
93 is 30x30x24
150 36x36x27 i think

 

[skene]

I also say go with a cube...

 

[Jaftica]

go for the biggest tank you can fit!

 

[jaa1456]

I would say yes to the 150 over the 93. I have seen them next to each other and there is a big difference almost 60 gallons worth. But like the others said go pick up Alex's tank, show her the price for his and what a new 120 or 150 would cost and she will give you the green light when she sees the price difference.

 

[thirty6]

alex tank is sweet, and the price is even sweeter i dont think its going to work for a bunch of reasons. leanign toward the 150 fits better and have the equipment for that many gallon setup

 

[tomtoothdoc]

go with the 200dd....fish will have more room to swim.....they will appreciate the extra foot horizontally.
you'll probably want a tang in there....36" ain't gonna cut it.
