I really like the size I have. It is a 7ftx2ftx2ft 210g tank. Nice size, shape, etc. I think at this point this is a great tank. I would go another foot to 8ft, but no more. I also love my 40g and 20gL, easy to clean out when algae gets out of hand, but less stable than my large system.

Ha ha ha... @Crabs Mcjones .. surely you jest!
I’m seriously considering a peninsula either from Red Sea or water box to upgrade from my 70 gal. I’ve got the bug. Lol.

Hoping to start my garage take over later this year. I have to draw everything out and see how it's all going to fit. I hope to get away with a 84x36x24 reef and a 84x36x36 FOWLER tied together. I like the thought of a massive system, something to tinker with all the time. Reality may make me reduce sizes some once I look at placement. Either way my biggest dream is 36" front to back, love deep tanks.

I'd like to go to a 6' x 3' x 2' deep. No worries in running it, but the cost of equipment & electricity to do so is a huge consideration.

75 gallons just let's you know how limited you are. [emoji53]In a 40 breeder now, Ideally i'd like to someday be to a 75 and I don't think i'd ever want to go bigger than that
Baby big boys are a bad/cruel idea and it's too easy to cram it with little ones that stay small.
"Just 1 more small fish" can be a serious problem.
With our 12" crawl space flooring maybe a 6' long 120? Still pretty limited for big fish but a nice compromise. [emoji846]
Maybe I just need to visit @4FordFamily.
