alfbennet,
Having had a couple tanks I love my (6'x2'x2') it is 150 gallons with the foot print of a 180 gallon. It is very cubish imo the best look for a reef.I even prefer the 65 gallon (3'x2'x2' )over the 75 gallon(48 1/2 x 18 1/2 x 21 3/8). The greater width allows for more natural looking aquascaping. Plus a larger tank can be more of a long term project more stable ect.Good reefing

quick question here Jim, In that tank picture I see a juvie imperator angel....how the blazes is he not destroying everything?

He's being good because imperators are generaly good reef residents - believe it or not. I just can't keep zoanthids or open brain types. He leaves everything else alone, including clams.
When you read about someone saying "this or that" are big risks, make sure it's coming from someone with experience, and not just someone repeating what he or she heard or read somewhere. :? That happens a lot on these boards unfortunately. If you get the angel young, most of the time they behave just fine in reefs, albiet you can't keep certain things as I said above. There are actually quite a few people keeping imperators in reefs.
Majestic angels and regal angels do well to, and I have a feeling maculosis angels are a good bet although I haven't tried it yet.
Holocanthus angels are extreme risks with some inverts, although even with them you can have keep mushrooms, anemones and euphylia. :)

Jim
