I’m looking for a frag tank and I am thinking aio. But there aren’t many options. I’m thinking 25 to 40 gallons. Advanced acrylics has some but they are very expensive. Anyone have suggestions. Thanks
 
Is this to grow out sell out of.

You could always use a horse trough 50 gal for 50 bucks. Can even go bugger if you need.

It all depends what you want to do with it . I have used Rubbermaid stock tanks with amazing success in the past .

But recently got myself a custom AIO built by Advanced Acrylics with 1 inch thick acrylic and all white and honestly even ReefSavvy can’t match the quality ...

Yes it was expensive but the price justifies every bit of the quality ...

I’ll contact them to see how much it is
 
Yea all my lfs don’t have frag tank, the lowboy is a good option but I can’t find one online.
Jbj came out with a 20 gallon frag tank awhile back. I believe it’s 26x21 not sure on how high. Innovative marine has a few shallow tanks too.

my local stores didn't have it in stock, but if any have the ability to order it then you prob can , I had a 4 day turn around if I ordered. At the time I was lucky enough to get hold of a deep blue RR.

Depending on where you are in Mass, if you'd be willing to drive to CT, the store I'm talking about is in West Haven, Slither and Swim, http://slitherandswimpets.com/ and then you could hit Blakes Aqua Den, Meriden CT, good place coral and fish, and Wet Pets in Vernon possibly depending how you'd come through.

Yea it’s a long drive there but if I’m near anytime I will definitely stop by thanks
 
Wow looks amazing, do you of have a build thread and what are the plans of this tank.

Well it was supposed to house all my large acropora colonies . But I lost like 95% in the move from my old house to new and restarted my
Old tank . So it’s nothousing anything .. just simply cycling ...

I do have an extremely long term plan of making it into a an acropora breeding system but it seems like years until I can acquire proper wild broodstock which am hunting forever
