I guess Im kinda partial to "taller" tanks, as for my personall feelings on the matter, I think people are way too worked up about tanks over 20" not getting enough light. I feel that 24" great, 30" is still great for a reef, and 36" is still ok for a reef, mabey dont put all your sps on the bottom, but still not that big a deal.... these are my personal feelings on the matter, and I know some will disagree with me, but thats ok. To backup my feelings, out of all the "nice" sps tanks I have seen, I cant recall any being less than 24"tall, infact most were 30" or taller. some tanks that looked nice to me may have been 20" but that dosent take away from the fact that much taller tanks look just as good, in my opinion better, and health and growth is not a problem in said tall tanks....

30 INCHES BABY!
I'm all for the tall tanks too.
Much more stunning and not as much crouching

I would set your max hight at 30" and offer widths up to 36".

the thing is that each tank size needs a custom mould built to manufacture it, so you will see more sizes that would be purchased more often as the molds are very very expensive, 36"deep is really far out from the wall, most people cant take up that much space in an outward direction...30" is large as well, but not quite as encrouching

Will you offer custom drilling and such on the tanks? I am honestly looking to order a custom tank in the next few months (3-4) and a couple of your sizes look pretty appealing...

Do you/will you have a display tank manufactured like this that I can see within a few months? I wouldnt mind a drive up to kelowna even...
