Im poosibly looking to get a aquarium going after being out of the fish hobby 8months now.

Id prefer a corner aquarium between 50-100gallons. Do not necessarily need the stand. Let me know if you have anything.

thanks

thanks rob im not sure if im going salt again, if I do find a corner tank. If I get back into salt Id prefer a all-in-one so that I can attempt not to mess with it all the time (this is what really burned me out after 4+ years). I noticed the 29g BioCube for sale but would only want the tank and stand, not all the other equipment, but prefer something for the corner of the room.

I think the all-in-one cube type tanks work well in the corner. You just have to angle them.

I can agree about the all-in one systems. Very easy to maintain once you find the right balance.

There's a large 125gal "all in one system" in the charter member section. It's been there for a few days so I'm sure it's coming over soon. Pretty cool system, it's acrylic and has 2 skimmers and 2 trickle filters built into the back of the tank. Definitely not a corner tank though.

How much are you looking to spend? I have a 92 corner tank that used to be in my wife's office. I just set it up at home as a freshwater tank but I'm not sure if I really want to keep it. It's has a Hiatt filtration setup, 2 x 150w halides, reefkeeper.

I haven't really thought about selling it so I'm not sure what I would want for it if I decided to sell it. I'd have to think about it.

Here's some pics of it now...

And this is what it looked like when it was a seahorse tank at my wife's work. Same filtration/lighting.
