36"x24" footprint? Share pics!

Look into the Waterbox 100.3, it gets closer to those dimensions than the Red Sea Reefer 250 as it has a 36x24 footprint rather than the 36x20.

Picture of current tank. 215 gallon Planet Aquariums tank. 72x24x29

Beautiful tank and wow 29" H?? I HATED my Red Sea tank and it was only 22" H ;Hilarious. I have no idea what I'd do with that, but that's me. Just imagine your current tank exactly but with 9" cut off the top:p
 
<snip>Planet Aquariums is an excellent manufacturer to go with if you do decide to go custom @Greybeard has a great example of there work in his build thread.

Thought I'd chime in :)

My tank is 60" x 30", not exactly what you're looking for. I can say that I'm very happy with Planet Aquariums.

Don't let the naysayer's talk you out of what you want. Bigger is NOT better. As long as the tank is big enough to hold what you want to put in it, well, size is up to you. It's your tank, right? Do what makes you happy.

Had a bunch of folks knock my wide, shallow idea. You know what? I'm VERY happy with it. Don't get my shirt sleeve wet when I'm messing in the tank, and it fits perfectly in the niche I wanted to fill.

I had only threw your name into the mix because you have a planet tank lol certainly not for the dimensions :p.

And no naysayers here anyway. Not trying to talk anyone out of anything, only trying to let him examine all the options which is the whole point of brainstorming.

Oh and I'm surprised that you caught so much flack with your dimensions when you started your build. And when I started mine (Almost the same but even shallower) everyone seemed to love the shallow idea. Amazing how quickly things change opinion wise.
