So I have been looking at various tanks for awhile.. I currently have a 40 gallon breeder. I am wanting to upgrade but not too much bigger... Basically 100 gallons or less. So With that.. What are some good dimensions to get.. Im up for custom made tanks as well. My stock will be mostly lps, and zoas. possibly an anenome and clam or 2. Lighting im open to anything, Protein skimmer I have is a sro xp2000 that i just bought. and I have an mp40.. So with this.. Help me decide on a tank.. I really have no idea what size or dimension to go with.. Any help is appreciated

For fish,, Just mainly gobies, firefish, clowns, small fish like that is what id like to house.
 
75 or 90 gal, 4' x 18" x 21"/24? , or they have a4ft 120 that is very nice... 4x2x2... and i think there is a 100gal but not sure on dimensions... and also several 36" tanks..
 
im not a big fan of the 24 inch tall tanks. i had a 90 once before but sold it quickly as it was just too tall.....
 
I like my 70gal. It has the same footprint as a 40 breeder(which is what my sump is). But if you do not have long arms it can be a pain to work in. I am 6'2 and it is still hard to reach the bottom.

If I had my dream though it would be a 4'x4'x2' 150 DD.
 
I was thinking about a tank like the dimensions above, or 36 x 30 x 20, I like the 48 x 24 x 18 tall as well. But im open to other dimensions as well.
 
I have a 120 gal. 48x24x24 and I love it. If I ever upgrade I'd want it wider for more front to back real estate. Nice big rock formation plus plenty of sand for Fungia and what nots.

Thats my next upgrade hopefully. Its like a 40B on steroids..

Capt, 4x4x2 would be well over 200 gal.. :wink:
