I have a tank of those dimensions, though not for sure on the width, but is 6 ft long

and with metal stand. I am not sure I am selling it yet as I am setting up a different reef tank at this time. What are you looking for? Just the tank?

Just starting a reef tank; Have a RO/DI question

I live in Okotoks (just south of Calgary) and just starting out a 148 gallon reef tank. Is it generally recommended that all water be run through a RO/DI unit prior to adding salt in my reserve tank?
