I was just wondering what the average or most common sized monster tank is amongst mfkers,is it 100,120,180 or bigger.
My biggest is 180g at the moment but hopefully soon will be a new 800g.

back when I worked at the LFS, the 90 gallon size was the best selling large tank.

not too big, not too small.

however, I would not be surprised if the 120g 4x2x2 is even more popular now.

it makes the perfect reef or planted tank because of the extra width, without having to take up 6 feet of wall space..

me, my largest is a 150g, 72x18x29.
 
i'd say 90 120 or 180 are most popular. when i worked at petgoods, 90 was the best selling big tank.
 
Cool thanks for the replies,i did mean to put a poll on the thread so we could see how many people had what size of tank but i lost the signal on my mobile lol.

5 years ago i wouldve said 125 gallons but the popular tank size nowadays seems to be the 180
 
Id have to say 180g.
 
Depends of what individuals consider a "Monster tank". IMO the minumum sized tank to be considered a "Monster tank" would be a 6x2x2' 180g. That is also what I would say is the most popular monster tank.
 
start a poll and get the results from there. I say most people's 1st step in to a monster tank would be a 75/90. After that looks small,lol, most jump to the 125/150/180 and stop there. Only few continue to get nuts and instead buy more tanks. Only because the 210/220/265 etc and up are now high dollar that most won't spend. I think it would be safe to say you could buy 3-4 125/150 gallon tanks for the price of 1- 265 gal.
I have seen many many 125/150 side by sides in peoples houses. I can count on one hand how many 265 gal. i have seen or anything above 180.
