A little about myself Here.
Today 1/16/21 I have taken the first step (bought the aquarium). I decided to go rimless with an AIO. This is the tank. The stand for it will be a DIY build. It will take the spot of my 20gal. low tech fw tank. The fw low tech will stay running in the same room.
The penninsula aio tank will be seen from both sides through a window between the kitchen and back porch.
(Back porch view)

I'm new to saltwater brands. Big fan of the motto "buy once, cry once" it has worked out well for my FW aquascaping goals.
I prioritize equipment purchases in this order:
function>reliability>durability>cost>asthetic.
My equipment list below based on what I like or been reading about. Please share any input, as I am still learning more. I'd like to know what everybody thinks.
Thanks for reading, looking forward to reading your thoughts and sharing ideas.
