1. 72x36x20
2. 72x36x18
3. 48x36x20
4. 48x36x18
5. Other (please list your dimensions)

Of course, this is all hypothetical.

Nice long break from reefing there pal.

1. 72x36x22

I changed it a little.

For Alex I'd pick:

60x36x24

The nice thing about the 18" and 20" tall tanks is that you can light them quite well with the 175w Iwasaki 15k bulbs (or where they 14k ? ). They have great par and color for very little power consumption. Would make the monthly eletrcial investment pretty reasonable

But I still would go with #1 or #3.. 18" T is just a bit too short for my tastes.. but that is purely preferrence . After our sand bed, eurobracing, etc, we only have approx 20" - 21" viewable anyways.

72x36x20 would be my vote.

I'm still kicking myself for not picking this one up when it was available <sigh>

I am very happy you didnt pick it up Eileen and thanks for your help in assisting me in in getting it

It's a really nice sized tank just simply because of the height and depth the length is a plus.

No problem I hope to see pics when you have it all set up, it's going to be so awesome! =)

Now if we can only get Maximus to get one...hmmmm.....

Doug, Look at his tank size.

Using the following input parameters
Tank Length = 48 inches
Tank Width = 48 inches
Tank Height = 24 inches

Tank volume is calculated as
Tank Volume = 239.4 Gallons

Tacocat lists his tank as a 240 cube

I figured, but my new rule is to quit assuming what people are trying to say, ESPECIALLY with this group of characters!!!

Love to see it man, I got a thing for the cubes. Cant decide on 48" or 42" sides for myself and want to see a 48"

My last tank had awesome dimensions, 48x36x20. I am not sure if I want the same sized tank. If I do get one, I am going with the same tank manufacturer as Invincible's and Naka's. The tank will be frameless and braceless. Btw, phase one (got rid of carpet) is complete Please ignore the crappy pic as I used my cell phone.


Phase one:
