120 gallon maybe

48"x24"x24"

looks like this would be the best option...what ya think...

Why can't go wider? Can't you just get rid of the door, and since you are putting in sliders don't take make them wall to wall?

Yes, the den is a much better choice for the tank!!!

Best of wishes & blessings!!

max depth is 24 inches...

OK, I wouldn't let you take a bathroom away either.lol

Those are some deep tanks.:yikes: How tall are you? Do you have really long arms? If you do go with at least the 150 Tall. I don't think the 170 will look all that good. Something about a 3 foot tall tank does not appeal to me, sounds like it will look weird. Plus what lights will you need to penetrate that depth?

 

[bueller]

agreed with the depth, going for fish only with live rock....but you know how that turns out....REEF within a year...lol but would like at least 24 in deep, just feel i want to get the most tank possible with the space given...

Hey, who's the new guy?

 

[Awibrandy]

I say the 150!

 

[bueller]

LOL...What's up chief...whats doing, what's your countdown....?

 

[bueller]

I say the 150!

was thinking that too...but 35 in. [170 gal.] of glass would be like a wall though

^ And also hard to work on from above. With that wight, I say the 150. 35 is going to drive you nuts (lol).
Love the location btw.
