Ok so done having kids and ready to start a new tank looking for a tank 29 gallon to 55 gallon any suggestions. I got rid of everything when I had my first kid so I need everything. anyone have items for free or sale ?
 
What does that mean "done with kids"? lol

Are you thinking reef or FOWLR?

If I were you I'd go for a 90 or a 75. I am already running out of real estate in my 57g after 8 months. ;)
 
wife and I decided not to have any more kids so she said I can get another tank but not bigger than a 55 gallon

55gal... 75gal... They're both 4ft long. She won't notice the difference. ;)
 
I would setup a 40 breeder if you are trying to stay within 25-55gal.
 
think that the 40gallon breeder would be a great fit if I got a 75 gallon wife wouldn't know but tank would look empty for too long
 
If you go with a 40br size, you can grab a brand new tank for $40 when PetCo has its Dollar-per-Gallon sales.
 
Not to turn you away from a taller tank like a 57g or 58g, but keep in mind that means the lighting has to be more intense as the tank gets deeper for corals.
 
For a 58 a 250w halide pendent is more than enough and their are plenty laying around for sale I'm sure.
You going for a sump or no sump?
