Looking for a new tank

yngplo · Mar 23, 2021

So after a bit of conversation, I've decided to upgrade from my IM 40 to at least a 120~ gallon tank. I've been doing a lot of reading and I kinda wanna go for a planet aquarium's crystaline or mega matrix model.

This is going to be my first larger build, and aside from moving my rocks and current coral/fish I own, I'm hoping to kinda begin in a place where I can start to have a permanent home for larger fish.

I'm still undecided between selecting a particular glass tank and a separate sump.

What other tank brands do you guys personally use in the 100+ gallon range?

Thanks!!

Yes first one was 10 years old had about 200 lbs of rock in it and 2 mp40 s making large wave end up starting to leak very little from seam. At 10 years with the weight of rock and stress from huge waves I think I got my time out of it. It was also my first tank and I think I went to crazy when I cleaned it with razor and cut silicon away from corners over the years. I will be more careful now. New tank has 1 mp40 with smaller wave and about 90lbs or rock Then bought another 120 and yes it’s in living room past year
