As far a glasscages goes, I was very impressed. I liked how good the customer service was, and would order from them again in a heart beat. It is a well made tank from what I can tell.

The tank was a standard dimension, and I just added the overflows to my order. I really know nothing about the tank.

The tank is in the house! The stand is not finished yet, and is still in the shop. I just wanted to see if I had enough light, so I set the light on the top. I think it will be enough. What do you think from what you can see in the pictures? ( I am going to change the center light to a little more blue color.)



(I got a few pieces of lace rock that I liked, so I set them in the tank.)

Arlene1995, you have a 125 right? Do you know what kind of return pump/s you run? I dont know what kind to get.
Anyone have an idea of what kind of return pump/s I should get?

Yup! I am running a single QueitOne4000HH. With headloss caculated in, for my tank at least, I have 776gph (388gph at each return). That should be more for your tank since it is shorter... The QuietOnes are great... Nearly dead silent and quite reliable!

I am looking into skimmers for this tank and have a few questions.
1) What do you guys thing of Bubble Magus Skimmers: Good? bad?
2) If the one above is no good I was looking at Octopus Skimmers. I have heard good things about them.
3) Would an Aqua C be better than an Octopus?
Anyone have better skimmer idea for better price?

I am pretty sure I am going to try a bubble magus. I think I am going to order it later this week... Hope to get some more stuff for the tank, but the budget for the tank is pretty much empty. haha

I never heard of Bubble Magus. Have you read any reviews of it?
