I need it all! Currently I have several freshwater tanks but am looking to get a nice saltwater display tank so I will eventually need everything. Would like 24" wide and Cabinet stand if possible but let me know what you have. I live in Surrey but will travel for the right tank. Complete setup would be great but will buy by piece if need be.

Typo. It's 108g not 180g :biggrin: Very nice tank. I've seen it in person several times.

Looks nice. What are the dimensions? Is it plumbed? What is the filter system? Does it have the lights that are strong enough for coral?

Thanks

Woops sorry it is 108 ! 72x18x18 plumbed one everflow one spare predrilled and capped. Just regular NO lights with two reflectors (sold all MH)
I did not use any filters i think for corals you want suspended particles (marine Snow) , so i used original ETS 700 skimmer only(also for sale)

As I mentioned in my post "I need it all!" In the end I want a fully functioning tank with coral and fish. What accessories do you want to part with and what is the cost? I will PM you with my phone number.

Still looking! Went to a few shops today to look at tanks. I am leaning towards 24" wide so fish have room to swim in front of rocks. Also it seems that any taller than 24" would require more lighting $$$$$. That being said I am left with 48x24x24 (120gal.) or 72x24x24 (180gal.). I can live with paying for a new tank but would still like to get a used cabinet if possible. Any opinions on 120 or 180 welcome.

try and find a 135, 72" by 18" high and 24" alot easier to light, and 2 feet wide is perfect for aquascaping.

good luck

Both excellent and common sizes. Easy to light as far as I am concerned, 2 MH fixtures for the 120 or 3 for the 180 and it will look perfect.

Thanks all but I have found a tank that fits my needs and living room. 60"Lx24"Hx20"W, I think this works out to 125 gallons if my math is correct. Standby for flood of newby setup questions. :) Sorry I guess flood is not a good word around here.
