Hi all, I am looking at getting a new tank preferably with a sump that is no greater in depth than 45cm and preferably 40cm. Length I am happy anywhere between 90-120cm and height doesn’t really matter as long as it isn’t a shallow frag tank.

To complicate things more I am UK based but happy to explore all options as currently i am looking at custom which would be £2k
 
Stay away from Red Sea tanks, I’m looking to switch from mine to a IM or water box. They have some sizes close to what you’re looking for. Maybe check them out. They are both great brands and have a much better track record.
 
Thanks for this and yes i like my water inside the tank and therefore will avoid Red Sea like a Tang avoids a net!
 
Think i may get a tropical tank and just use its filtration as opposed to having a sump pump this way i can get a Ciano tank with dimensions of 102 length x 40cm width that seems perfect. Just need to sort some lights
