I am looking to upgrade my Waterbox tank from AIO to a tank that includes a sump.
I am considering the Marine X 60.2 or Marine X 90.3.

Other than obvious overall size, is there anything else I should take into consideration when considering these tanks?

I currently have a 20 cube and JBJ45 AIO. So being able to have a sump will be a whole new experience. I know nothing about what this all entails.

I am looking forward to being able to have a larger variety of fish and easier maintenance in a larger tank.

I think those are both good choices as the plumbing is built-in which is typically one of the more challenging things about having a sump for the first time.

One thing I would recommend is checking out the size of the filtration equipment you want to use, particular the skimmer, to make sure it will fit in the sump for the tank you plan to get. Also, you probably should research your filtration options and see if they are in-line with what you plan to do.
