Looking for tank recomendatioms

SeeingGreen · Apr 26, 2012

I have a move coming up in a couple months. As a result I am looking to set up a new system at my new residence.

I found a couple store displays which are of the style I want, but I don't see them listed anywhere, even after asking the store owners.

What I am after is a shallow tank with external overflow, ada has some close but are all sold out.
24x24x8 is the general size. Preference is rimless with nice thick glass.

Just curious if anyone has any favorite places to go for this style, or suggestions on a better way to search.

Thanks,

Are you looking for custom? That's what I would do.

I can go that route, just trying to determine who to go to on it. I like off the shelf on this because it will hopefully be a short term thing in the lead up to actually getting a house and stopping the craziness of apartment tanks.

My goal with this tank is to make it more coral focused. Previous tanks were purchased to accommodate a green puffer that got me started in this hobby, but as it is no longer around, I am free to focus less on the structure and more on the growth aspect. I am currently housing my said in a 10 gal sat to my 45tech tank. I spend more time with the 10 gal tank than the main, and the "look down" views on it are way more impressive to me.

Just trying to get some feel for where people suggest, as I have pretty much bought the hand me downs through my local club, or cobbled systems from Petco $1 gallon sales.

If it helps any, my favorite tank ever in this style was one I saw a long time ago that someone made by splitting what looked like a small rain barrel the tall way, and building a cradle for it.

I would look into Reefsavvy. He is a sponsor here and his tanks are amazing. He can make any size tank you want and his build quality is second to none.
