So the biggest size tank I've ever had is a 30L Innovative Marine... and let's be honest. It's not REALLY 30 gallons after you figure in the back "sump" area.

I've purchased a Waterbox Marine X 90.3 tank. I didn't purchase the lights that were offered with the tank, but I'm still leaning towards Aqua Illumination for lighting. I have EchoTech Radions running on my 30L. Any input on this? (I'm the type of person who LOVES to control things together in one application on my smartphone. I have two Nero 5s on that 30L that are easily accessible with my phone).

YALL IM SO EXCITED I DONT KNOW WHERE TO EVEN BEGIN!

So we got the oak finish for the stand. And it comes with a sump area? Which will be new to us. We've had All In Ones for most of our time in the hobby. So any feedback on THIS will be greatly appreciated. I'm sure we'll get a protein skimmer and some kind of filtration.

My other question --- how many fish would you theoretically put in this tank? I've always wanted a tang, but I'm so afraid of killing it.

YALL JUST BLAST AWAY WITH OPINIONS/INPUT, because this is the biggest tank I've ever purchased and I'm SO EXCITED.

Congratulations, looks like a beautiful tank. In terms of 90 gallons, much will depend on whether you want many smaller fish, a few larger fish, or some combination. If you want to save yourself a LOT of time and stress, research your potential ‘dream fish’ carefully, ask a lot of questions, and try your best to stick to your stocking (shopping) list.
 
Congrats on your new tank!
I have 3 AI Hydra since 4 years ago in my mix reef and they are really good, the app is very intuitive, of course Radions are also a great option. If you want to control lights and wavemakers in one app then AI is good.
 
Congratulations I love those tanks. In my opinion the sump makes life so much easier. Certainly not necessary lots of amazing AIO tanks around. Just so nice to be able to buy heaters/skimmers/filters/etc and not have to ensure they are not too big to fit in the 3" you have left . Even if you dont buy a skimmer...it is nice to know you can.
