for cheaper than 900 close to 650 its 72x24x30 does that sound right for a 225?

or

96x24x30 for $475. Comes with stand (not cabinet type) but its wood, lights and canopy. has 2 minor scratches but is 2ft longer and cheaper.

the replies on this dictate which tank I pick up friday

As someone once said:

'You dont hear many people saying 'dang, I wish I had gone with a smaller tank'.
But the final descision is up to you.

The stand and hood MIGHT make a differance depending on where you plan to put the tank in the house. My wife is very supportive and as much into the hobby as I am but a concrete block stand or other form of advanced ugly?

Oh the hell with it...get the larger tank and if necessary...doll up the stand and build a matching hood...it's still a better deal LOL

Bigger is usually better unless its a tumor. Go for the larger and cheaper.

 

[DrZacharyus]

i can add doors and such to the stand, i will pick up the larger one, 8ft will be nice
