Trying to get back in the hobby. I have an IM 30g L still in the box. Got it out and discovered the back glass panel has a crack (no idea how, it’s been in the box since I left the hobby 5 years ago). Maybe a sign to stay out of the hobby… or get a new tank .

Where is everyone buying tanks from these days? Current front runner is a Water Box Mini 30. I had a deep blue professional in the past, I dig their 57G rimless, but stupid $$$.

Here are my ideal features…

- 36 or 48 inch
- 24 inch deep max
- gallons not important, but ideally 30 or more, 80 max
- rimless
- drillable if not already fitted with an overflow
- budget $500

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
