Hello! I'm looking at getting back into saltwater aquariums. I had one as a kid, but honestly, my mom did most of the actual work maintaining the aquarium. I could use some input on smaller tank recommendations from anyone who'd be willing to chime in. For a variety of reasons I'd like to stay in the 20-30ish gallon range. I think I've narrowed it down to the JBJ RF-25, IM 20 Nuvo Fusion Pro, IM 25 Nuvo Fusion Lagoon, or the Waterbox 25 Peninsula. Any input on what has worked well for others would be appreciated!

Welcome to R2R! I don't really think you can go wrong with any one of the tanks you mentioned they are all good tanks from reputable manufacturers.

I have a JBJ 20 gallon cube and an Innovative Marine 40 gallon long. Both are great tanks, but I would give the edge to IM.

Thank you! Do you mind if I ask what specifically makes you lean towards IM over the JBJ?
 
Welcome to R2R and back to the salty world. Waterbox are great tanks. Take things slowly. Lots of knowledgeable and helpful people here who will support and advise you when needed.
