display tank, maximum size you're comfortable with
 

everyone, including me wish we could keep and maintain magnificent display tanks large enough to swim in. practicality then kicks in and we limit our tank size to what we are comfortable with in regards to setup costs, ongoing maintenance costs, space limitation, protestation from others who share your living area etc. well mine is 90 gal display, 75 gal sump with additional 50 gal tote for additional water volumn. what's your? feel free to give details and explain why you wouldn't go any bigger or smaller.

Mine is a 300 gal display with 50 gal sump, I was seriously short on time when I moved or I would have gone bigger (I have most of the parts to build a 875 gal, just didn't have the time to put it all together) I think my dream tank would be a 12'x60"deepx36"high (right after I win the lottery!)

I settled on a 120 (w/ 30g sump) because I like the depth and the length was realistic for the space I wanted it in. I would love to go bigger but I'm already having humidity issues!

40 gallon with 10 gallon sump since I am on the 2nd floor of my apartment building, but I have 2 29 gallon tanks as well.

If I owned and was on a ground floor or in a house I would go up to 90-120 gallons.

mine is a 4' 90 gallon with a 20 gallon sump and 50 gallon fuge maybe i will add another big tank to the system who knows:mrgreen:

I have a 225 gal with 70 gal sump as well as a 90 gal corner with 50 gal sump.

i have a 150 with a 30 gal sump. since I have my whole rec room converted in to a huge living area too. I didn't want to have a huge stand and canopy to take up space and plus i love inwalls and where mine is its the perfect place it takes no space at all.

I was lucky as well. I had an extra room in the basement that I closed off and made my inwall 250. I have a 60 gallon sump as well as two 13 gallon frag/mangrove tanks. An upstairs 50 tops it off. Humidity was a problem for a while but I installed a vent system above the 250 that now keeps everything in check. I don't think I would go bigger as I spend too much time in the fish room as it is:lol:

I have a 90 Gal with a 30 gal sump.

I would love to go bigger but the space where the tank fits in the basement works perfectly.

Currently a 75 Gallon Display with a 45 gallon Sump/Fuge.

I'd be ok with a 96x24x30 (300 gallon), however I would have to do some some serious re-wiring to make it happen (tank couldn't be further away from the Box)
