For me I would start with a tank try things and sure will do great.
But if you are planning for upgrades I would maybe wait or start looking for your ultimate tank build...
If you are looking to try things for a free tank I have a couple 180guns..90glns..and I think 45glns all with metal stands and drilled...hope that makes your plan a little easier...lol
For a new tank build I highly sugest Concept aquarium in Calgary top service...

Thanks Eli,
I'm sure I'll add a tank at some point. I'm not concerned with an upgrade as much as I am having to move everything when we redo the basement. But it sounds like it won't be detrimental to the tank inhabitants if I move them temporarily to another tank while the Reno is happening in a couple years.

Thanks for the generous offer on the tanks. I honestly have no idea how to get a 180 gallon into my basement. Is there a moving service that specializes I. Aquariums?

I've actually tried Concept before but I haven't received a return call.

I changed out both of my smaller tanks (RSM 34g & non-reefready 2' cube) for Reef Ready cubes (30" & 2'). Love them.

Call concept again ask for Denny
Tell him what your looking for, and the plan for the tank he'll help you
I ordered 2 tanks today from him, didn't take 15min

This will be my 3rd tank from him and 1 sump couldn't be happier
Great customer service

Well, I did try again and the only thing I can conclude is that I was calling the wrong number originally. I did get Denny and he has been extremely helpful with getting me started. Thanks for suggesting I try again.

Welcome to CanReef! I would get started on a tank right away and when it's time to upgrade then do the upgrade. Get your "feet wet" ASAP and gain invaluable experience that will help you become successful moving forward.
