oh this thread caught my attention...I LOVE the looks of peninsula tanks. I dream of one all the time...some day.
here is my 2cents for what ever it worth.
I know your limited in space and every inch counts, that said if you're going through the process of an upgrade really think about the size. for we I would go no less that 30" wide. one of the benefits of peninsula tanks if the 2 long sides of viewing and with 30" wide you can really get a nice scape with depth. I know its only 4" my perfect size would be 36" wide.
I all so would go as long as you can rally give the fish more room to swing and its fun to see them cruz back in forth. I had a 8x2x2 240 once and love watching them do that,
I know space is limited and you have to get a tank that fits the space. might conciser moving things around or getting smaller table? chances are after some time you might slide it out of the way any how, then you will be like crap could have gotten 36 wide..haha
so to tanks them self looks in to SCA tanks contact Steve C there tanks are nice I have there 36" 90 gal. I see tons of pll oh there FB group with the 150 and you can get them P. style drilled for external over flows. they also offer real wood stands to.
