if you want to put a tank with the same footprint, consider the Aqueon (aka Allglass) 150 gallon tank. I have one and its a very well made tank, its 72 x 18 x 29.5 tall. an awesome tank to sit in front of. your local fish store should be able to order one for you. check my signature for my tank build if you like.
that tank looks great....did it come with all the lights and **** or no? just urious ill really look into that is it only in canada or in the states too?
thanks, I bought everything brand new from the local fish store with the exception of one Rena canister and and AquaClear 110 that I had from my previous tank (a 90g). the black silicone seal was special order though. it normally comes in clear only, but Aqueon will build one for you with black, but your LFS would have to special order it for you. thats what I did, because I like black seal tanks, and the only tanks Aqueon makes with black seal currently are all of their bowfront tanks only..not their rectangular standard tanks.
can they be ordered in the states? also i do like how tall it is rather than deep.....r u kicking your self over that extra 30 gals or not....my tanks already sits off the wall 4" just to run everything behind but its all hidden....options options
do you live in the states? if so, its easy to get your local fish store to order you a tank, and you don't have to pay shipping.
as far as the tank size, I went with the 72x18" footprint as it was the largest footprint I could put in the room reasonably.
if you can go with a 72x24" footprint (a 180 or 220 depending on the height) that is always better

if your like me and prefer brand new stuff, its worth it.
if you don't mind second hand stuff, you can save money that way. check your local craigslist or kijiji classified sites.
