Hi! New to the community and saltwater...

[Stacey G]

Hi everyone! I have had freshwater tanks on and off my whole life. I am now interested in venturing into saltwater with a fish and corals tank. I've been researching for a few weeks now, watching lots of YouTube videos and reading through more than I can remember. I'm starting to plan my build and having trouble deciding on a tank. The tank will be in my living room and I will have recliners on each side of it, so viewing for me will mostly be from my recliner (side view). I'm leaning toward a 4'x2'x2' (or close to it). I've been looking at the Waterbox, Innovative Marine, and Red Sea tanks that include the sump, but I'm not sure which way to go.

I'd love to hear any suggestions and ideas from others and look forward to joining the community!

Welcome to Reef2Reef!!! They are all good tanks - you may want to look at the R2R member tanks section - you should find several threads with each of those options.

Welcome to R2R!

I have my Red Sea Reefer in my living room and it’s changed the dynamics of the house. Now everyone spends all their time in the living room.

Thanks! I plan to spend the afternoon reading through all the member tanks and build threads.

Cheaper than the Waterbox and Redsea counterparts and ships free. I have the 108INT (internal overflow) I'm building now that you can check out by clicking on my build thread badge.

Welcome to R2R! All of the options you mentioned are good options. I would suggest you head over to the Member Tanks section and browse different tank builds to see what you like best!
