I am looking to purchase a used 130 gallon seamless bow front drilled tank. I was wondering if any one has any experience with them and any pros or cons. Dimensions are 48”L, 24” at widest and 30”H. My main concern would be the height. What are the downsides of a tank that tall? And for a mixed reef what kind of LED lighting would you recommend. Any advice would be very helpful! Thanks in advance.
 
Never own a bowfront tank but i know some local reefer do. They said the front pannel can be difficult to use the magnetic cleaner to clean and difficult to control flow especially with the MP.
