What do you think about this 150g

my personal preference would be to put the setup together myself.

the skimmer and return pump on that look like junk, and i would prefer at least a 72" long tank, not a 60" long. although 24"wx24"h is nice.

filter media and bio balls included? no thanks.

single overflow with single drain pipe? pass.

it's not a terrible setup necessarily, and i see the attraction of a turn key system. but at nearly $2500 it is a big chunk of change. spending that much money i would prefer to hand pick the components going in to the system. especially in regards to the tank dimensions and drain configuration.
 
aside from custom tank makers, sadly i'm not sure.

i've kind of been looking around myself, trying to find places to order larger tanks from, but it seems like most people have them special ordered through the LFS, or get custom made ones from somewhere like Miracles. definitely interested in hearing suggestions though.
 
Yeah I'm going to enquire at my local coral specialty shop. They do tank builds, but I fear they will be really expensive.
 
I bought a "kit" when I first got into SW and it was a huge mistake, I ended up replacing most of the stuff as I gained more experience. I would check Craigslist before doing anything.

Good Luck.
 
Pick your components depending on what you want to keep in your tank (especially the filtration and lights).
