Pros and cons of 93 gallon cube

[Betta-Chetta]

I would like to know everyone's input on the 93 gallon cube. I've been wanting to do this tank forever but I've heard bad things about the rimless tanks. I don't want it rimless still want the black trim but I would like to know what people think good and bad on the tank or if they had a chance to do a different tank I'd like to know. Thank you!

I like cubes, but flow is going to be more difficult than a long tank. You can likely use a single light fixture.

You'll be limited on fish choices since there isn't a lot of swimming room. Me? I'm doing a primarily goby tank along with a couple bigger fish in my 150DD.

Thanks for yalls opinions! I honestly didn't think to much about flow with that tank so something to think about. I land on mostly having corals and inverts with very few fish. I also plan on getting a 300 gallon to house a pair of cortez stingrays and a couple schools of fish. But just brain storming at this point. What type of corals would you put in the tank? I know I want the main part of the tank to be dedicated to a purple tip frogspawn.

That's awesome ! What fish do you have or plan on having in it? Also have you heard of any bodies cube tanks bottoms falling out because they do it have a center brace underneath it?

Kole tang, starry blenny, filefish (a. Tomentosus), a bunch of gobies, and maybe a damsel or two.
