I currently have a 55 as a frag tank, things are growing and it’s going well.
my question is for my next step I would like to ask, Low boy tank?Custom Tank? Or a Hydroponics Flood Table?

Depends on the size you want. If the low boys are close to the size you want then i would go that route. They work great and cost is cheaper than most options.

I can get a hydroponic flood table(2’x4’) and stand for around $150-$200. That seems the be around the price of a lowboy ($200-$250) and with no stand.
Hydro flood table is easier to drill than glass from what I’ve seen. I do like the lowboys, they just seem expensive for a tank.

I've used both and prefer the lowboy. You can get a zoomed for around $150. Drilling either one takes 5 minutes, so that isn't a factor to me.
