so i was able to get a pretty sweet deal on a 65 tank stand canopy and sump traded for some of my captin america palys so heres the problem what to do with it already have a clown tank and a 210 tank so prob wont be a reef i know its too small to do any aggressive fish dem are 36x18x24 what do u guys think
 
40 br/50/65 is a great footprint for a reef, think about it some more because you can make a pretty dramatic presentation.
 
terrarium is cool, i forget where i saw it, but there is a kit that you can buy that puts the tank on end, and you glue a front on the top of the tank and do those arrow frogs, way cool and way expensive.
 
Mangrove invert tank! Like at the Shedd, but better. Did you see the PFK article this month? Yeah, like that.
 
there are a lotta inverts/nems/deepwater that are coldwater, lighting is different too, they're kinda bland looking to me though, personal preference.
 
Wow. Gotta look into those ideas. Never thought of those. And reptiles is where the wife draws the line. She would kill me. Would be a way out tho. Lol.
 
Headed to pick up new tank. Hopefully it fits in my car. Ill post pics when I get in house. Hope sellers specs are correct. Wish me luck
 
Just got home and put tank in bsmnt specs slightly off. But after taking car apart and removing some door and frames. Its in. Specs of tank are 70 l 15 h and 30 deep. Going to put vlamingii tang in there sooner or later. Any other suggestions. Now that its no longer a 60 gallon
 
140 i believe anyways its pretty cool ill post pics as soon as back and arms work again 2nd big tank carried into house no more buyer of this house gets two big tanks :thumb:
 
Those are cool dimensions,a shallow lagoon type tank comes to mind.With a few aggressive fish and some leather corals.
 
Yea I like that. Hope a puffer keeper reads this. How do u thinnk a puffer would do in a shallow tank. I know they get big and are kinda messy. But when a big one puffs up think it might stick out the water
