OK , i am fixing to purchase and setup / start a new fish/reef tank. currently have a 110 gallon 4ft x 18in x 28in tall. i have only been in the hobby 8-1/2 months and i am not happy with the width and the height of the tank. looking to purchase a 1-1/2 yr old used 160 gallon reef tank. i believe i am getting a deal on it. It has a left back corner bottom drilled overflow. It's a 160 gallon size 4ft x 3ft x 21" with stand, 3/8 in glass euro braced. My question is im looking to put 1500 to 1800 to setup . for this size tank would you spend extra cash and have a custom built tank with star fire glass? :neutral: new and lil confused. I know star fire is way more expensive, and is it really worth it, or would you spend the xtra cash on new lighting? like led's or t-5s

starfire is definitely worth it, I thought it wasn't, then got a starfire tank, and I will never own regular glass tanks again if I can help it. All you need in starfire is the front, and with those dimensions, the sides as well.
