choosing a tank

[vcnt]

Any "inexpensive" rimless 40breaders that are recommended?

are you looking for just a tank, or a system? inexpensive and rimless generally do not go hand in hand if you want something of reliable quality. You could look into making one yourself, plenty of tutorials out there.

How does the plus make a differnce?

See below. it looks like they're sold out right now, but you may be able to find the system from other retailers. My main point is unless you are using just a tank for a specific purpose, you'll probably be happier with buying a complete system that you don't have to mess with much to get it set up. I went with red sea reefer without doing much research; if I had to do it again I would buy a waterbox system. It really depends what your goal is.

Is it more money sense to purchase one of those kits?

if you aren't picky about what lights, skimmer, return pump etc. you want to use, the kit will be easiest because you know everything will fit and work seamlessly. if you want to save some money, buy the tank system without the lights and pumps, and then value engineer your own accessory options.
