right size tank....

The bigger the better but not too tall. I have a 700litre tank but
it's too tall for me to reach to the bottom. Height would ideally
be the distance from your arm pit to your hand.


That CAN be a problem. I have a 150-gal. custom tank 5' x 2' x 2'. I love
the depth and width, but I'm short and I have to stand on a stepladder to
reach the bottom, and if I don't drain some water before I start, I'm in up
to my neck and dip my boob too! ;) LOL

I personally do not think there is any such thing as "The right size
tank" as its all a personal choice......If a person likes a pint
tank or a 1000 galo tank with or without a sump with or without corals
fish etc etc its their choice......and for larger being easier to keep
to me thats a myth for the most part.

Same for lights and filters and all the other associated equipment.Its
personal choice and what a person is satisfied with. I see no need for
a tank with MH sysytem. as I do not have any desire to keep anything
that requires such lights....opinions are endless on things like this
and thats all it is....God forbid if yu throw whats the best skimmer
into the mix, or best lights.........

Just go with what you can actually afford and be happy with and go
from there......

LOL....I know how that is :) I have a 80 gallon freshwater that I can't
reach to the bottom of standing on a tall ladder. I feel like it would be
easier to stand inside of the tank and clean it. :o) With a sal****er it's
even more important to be able to reach down to the bottom of the tank.
