display tank, maximum size you're comfortable with

[Lance]

I have a 225 gal with 70 gal sump as well as a 90 gal corner with 50 gal sump.

i have a 150 with a 30 gal sump. since I have my whole rec room converted in to a huge living area too. I didn't want to have a huge stand and canopy to take up space and plus i love inwalls and where mine is its the perfect place it takes no space at all.

I was lucky as well. I had an extra room in the basement that I closed off and made my inwall 250. I have a 60 gallon sump as well as two 13 gallon frag/mangrove tanks. An upstairs 50 tops it off. Humidity was a problem for a while but I installed a vent system above the 250 that now keeps everything in check. I don't think I would go bigger as I spend too much time in the fish room as it is

I have a 90 Gal with a 30 gal sump.

I would love to go bigger but the space where the tank fits in the basement works perfectly.

Currently a 75 Gallon Display with a 45 gallon Sump/Fuge.

I'd be ok with a 96x24x30 (300 gallon), however I would have to do some some serious re-wiring to make it happen (tank couldn't be further away from the Box)

Currently building a 63x24x24 tank and that was as large as i could go in the space that was donated. I could have gone deeper, but cost of glass would have gone up considerably.

Have a 145g room divider, with a 20g fuge and 75g sump in the basement. I'd love to get a tank where I could get that 3-4-5' front to back depth (think Oregonreef) but just won't be happening because committed in the area I'm at and space available.

When wife and I were looking for a new house, did it a the idea of having a display on the main floor rather than in the basement. Was though what was practical as we were buying a house not a fish tank. Joke that I'm going to live out my days here, but had to think about resell and any changes we got the builder to do.

Other than a frag tank in the fish room, about the only thing I might do is place a small corner tank (90g max) in a room setup as a computer/library type area and plumb back to the main sump. Would be a species specific tank (clown/anemone or seahorse type idea).

Guess still could have the 2000g in the basement but is this a hobby or obsession?

[e46er]

my tank is in my bedroom so size was a factor for sure i have a 120 G (4x2x2) with 40 G sump and its my fist salt tank so i didnt want too much bigger to learn on

[tang daddy]

same thing for me as e46er a 120g with 50g sump in my bedroom, in the future I am planning a 5-6ft long 3ft wide by 20inches tall tank custom with a 75g sump and a 30g breeder for frags also a 33g for wc.

[karazy]

personaly the max i would go with right now would be 60 gallons.

mostly just because im 13, my house doesnt have much space at all (the tank would be in the ugly dark basement) and maintaining anything larger would take alot of allowances
