    I just built a stand for my 125rr tank.  I love the stand and I was wondering what the biggest tank was with the 72" x 18"  footprint.  I only know of the 150 gallon.  I would love to go bigger but dont want to lose the stand.  Im not quite rich enough for a custom tank.  Thanks for any ideas.[​IMG]

    This reference guide is from a freshwater site, but the same tanks come in Reef Ready tanks.

    FRESHWATER?! unacceptable lol j/k. I broke into this hobby some 10-11 years ago directly into saltwater, and after working at petland, and having friends with planted tanks, and discus tanks I really can't wait till I have the time and space one of these days to set up a FW discus tank for my own!

    Discus are awesome. They are the only freshwater fish that I ever wanted to have, but never got a chance to set up a tank for them. One of these days, I'll set up a discus tank. Another member of GIRS (that I know of...I'm sure there are more) does quite a bit with discus and I'm sure could share some very useful tips with you if you're interested in them.

    Thanks for the replies.  I did find the 180 tall, that thing is 31" tall!  I think my best bet might be to add 6 " to the back of my stand and that will put me in 180 -220  land.
