What tank to buy??

[scuzy]

Local Craigslist in bayarea recently had a guy liquidating a aquarium store stock with red sea reefer tanks for 40% off retail. Check it out.

Has anyone heard of "Glasscages.com"? Are they a reputable company?

You'll find mixed reviews about them; if you are going "custom" contact Keith Grandt, he does amazing work and is based in the Sacramento area.

Get the Red Sea and a new husband, lol. The stands are beautiful and functional, just my $.02.

I have ordered two aquariums from them. One was a 50 gallon, one a 27 gallon. Both were acrylic. I had no problems with the work quality (given the low cost) or interactions with the company, but they are more budget minded... if I were ordering a 125 gallon showpiece, I would probably want absolute perfection and would look elsewhere and spend a little more.

What about the NUVO SR SERIES SR-120 tank by Innovative Marine? Is the protein skimmer big enough for the 120 gallons? Any disadvantages to having the sump in the back?

Unless you are really tight on space I would say get a bottom sump. It is so nice to have accessible work space (I'm assuming your tank will be back against the wall).
