90

[burning2nd]

a Lfs has a 90 RR 48x36x18 for 179.99

since its deep (not high) what should i be looking at for lighting?

I was thinking of the Orbit 2x15+4t5's what do you guys think?

it might be better to sell the 150 and do a 90
with a 40 gal sump

Go with a 75 same foot print not as deep else move up to the smallest 4X2 foot print think it is a 120 but not sure

Lighting will all depend on what you want to keep Jon...I went from a 90gal to a 75gal just for the better dimensions like previously suggested by Brian and ran dual 250w MH's. Makes life a whole lot easier IMO to choose lighting and also to aquascape

The dimensions you gave are for a 135 gallon. At 18" high, you may be able to get away using 150w especially if you have a sandbed. If it was me, I would go with 175 or 250, with some kind of actinic supplementation. JMHO

I was going to say the same thing...depending on what you are wanting to keep makes all the difference in what lighting to go with. Decide on that and the lighting will be easy to decide on.

Don't forget the spelling Yeah, that's a standard 90gal. At minimum, I'd run dual 250'w halides
