Would you trust an Aqueon 125 gallon tank to hold up well over time? I know the quality is not the same as some higher quality brands, but any major red flags with this brand?
 
I have an aqueoun 180 gallon tank. I’ve had it for about 8 years now without issue. I would not hesitate getting another one. The only “bad” thing is there are 2 braces on top of mine that limits lighting choices. The braces likely also help make it reliable.

My 40 gallon breeder Aqueon sump is also good.
 
I have never had any issues with their tanks. Well made and rimmed so good to go imo have 125 freshwater in my basement 7 years. Also have one of their 65 gallon tanks for my reef set up. 6 years and in perfect condition
 
I have an aqueon 90, and am considering the 210. They hold up and that company has been around for a very long time. They are not as fancy as a waterbox, and the braces do cast shadow, but easy to work around that
 
I’ve been using the Aqueon 125 gal for the last 3 years for a mixed reef tank. It has had no issues whatsoever! I definitely noticed that I have to place the lights in particular areas to help with some of the shadows, but it’s possible to work around!
 
Running a 180 gallon for almost 10 years, even surviving a house move. Has done much better than the leaking marineland it replaced.
