A standard 120gal is a very versatile size. Easy to light, provide adequate flow, wide and long enough for creative aquascaping, not too heavy or long for moving, and plenty of options for stocking. In the first two years of being in this hobby I went through a 20gal, 48gal, 33gal, and 50gal before moving up to the 120gal which I have now had for 8 years. That being said... a 250gal 5'x3'x2' would be nice.

That being said, now I think my dream is 120x30x30. Maybe a little shorter |

I would love to have a fish only peninsula around 120x36x30", but I couldn't fit that in my house. I have a 50-gallon reef right now 36x18x18", and that is the ideal size for this house.
Haha! Nice one Mark. |

I'm putting in a 60.5x27.5x27.5 that I think I will like, but ideally I think I would like (next upgrade) 96x34x22.
The height is more due to laziness and the fact that it would still allow me to get to the bottom corners to scrub down the coralline (Bare bottom)
