I like your aquascape too! It's like pillars - very dynamic.

Woohoo congrats on getting the Waterbox 130.4! Did you buy it direct from them? When is it supposed to arrive? BRS, Marine Depot, and Saltwater Aquarium are the sites I look at the most too. I try not to buy from Amazon, but looking there often has more reviews than other sites just for research.

Omg what a fun idea. Great thread! Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Awesome! I think I've settled on the Nuvo 30g long. I love the shallow, long dimensions. I could call it Ethan's Nano Pano lol. I used to have a cube and just want a different look. But people do awesome aquascaping in cubes. It's my understanding that all tap water should be filtered because even if its good water like Portland, there are still chemicals you don't want in your tank. Now if the question is RO/DI vs jist DI, I'm not sure. I look forward to following y'all along too! I might not start for another couple of months due to helping some family move. But it's actually good to force me to slow down to plan more ha ha. Plus, in a couple months there will start being holiday sales [emoji4] Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk

Hey, I'm very interested if you haven't sold it. Any scratches on the front or two sides? Curious if you ever had the stand that is made for this tank, or did you have it on another piece of furniture just fine? Did you ever use a sump with this or do you think the back area is enough space for basic equipment (filter media, heater, pump, skimmer, ato, maybe one other thing?) Thanks!

@Danielie21 Thanks! How are you liking that bowed front? I think I want flat glass, but curious.

Hey PNW reefers! I just joined because I'm getting back in the hobby after about 10 years. I had a 12g cube in college before I moved across the country to Portland. I've been wanting to get another tank and now that I have more time during pandemic, why not start now! Plus, we all need a relaxing tank to look at in my house. I'm in the market for a 20-30ish gallon setup. In college all my stuff was cheap and DIY. Now I'm looking at the super nice systems such as Waterbox or Red Sea. I'm interested in AIO tanks, pre-plumbed used tanks, or something in between. I want it to be longer than it is wide, aka not a cube, but those seems more popular these days. I could be persuaded if someone has good reasons of why to get a cube vs long. My how the technology has changed in a decade! LED lights controlled by your phone app?! I can't wait to play with that! But I have noticed that so many photos these days are super blue and saturated. I'm more into natural looking light. Are people just going overboard with the blue for fade/fun or is there new research about blue spectrum being beneficial for coral?
