Smile Cube for Angels

I would suggest a long tank for angels. Cubes are nice but I think you would have an easier time with a long tank, both in ease of maintainance and overall fish success..happy holidays

ya but its worth it I have owned many types of skimmer from Eiro reef's to Becketts and Imo Becketts are good for FOWlr and Euro reefs and BM are good for mixed and SPS systems, they really pull a lot of crap out ,but they pull it out slowly. Becketts yank the crap out.

Im doing a Cube once I get back from Afghanistan in Aug probably do a
30 x30 x 24. with a exteranl over flow too
