Either tank would only last the fish up to about 12-14". Could you not get a 60x24x24" tank instead?

48x24x25 is better than the 72x18x25,and as Tim stated hope you could get something like 60x24x24

The 120-gal wide, 48x24x24, is better

Either tank would only last the fish up to about 12-14". Could you not get a 60x24x24" tank instead?

The difference between a 60x24x24 and 48x24x24 is a foot, but if the 48x24x24 would only last the fish up to about 12"-14", how long would the 60x24x24" tank last the fish?

WIDTH matters . . .

If your tank is 24" wide, then obviously its not only going to last until your fish is 14"...

get the wider tank

Exactly , I would recommend getting a 30" long by 6' wide tank

IMO it really wouldn't matter as either tank is going to eventually upgraded. Once the jardini is bigger then 18" I would look to getting it into a bigger tank.
