Awesome! Thank you so much! Yes i also much prefer the rimless, at this time though i'm just unable to afford one- if this tank works for me in a couple years i will be upgrading to rimless for sure.

As far as corals go which of these tanks would be best in your opinion? They are the exact same apart from LED and florescent:

I am worried about too much lighting and algae growth.

If you are worried about your lighting honestly get something like a kessil a160we or an AI prime they are worth the money and you can adjust it the way you want then you're not second guessing your lighting system.

For now i think i am going to stick to the JBJ cube, just trying to figure out which would be best. I'll be upgrading later if all goes well but for now.. Cube it is!

For easier to raise corals in lower light, I've had success with kenya trees, toadstools, green star polyps and mushrooms. Many of these will grow out of control if you're not careful. I also like hammers, trumpets, acans and brain corals (trachyphyllia), but they're a little more finicky. Looking forward to see how you make out. Have fun.
