The only thing that i need is the aquarium it self and the sock because i am going to buy the light separately. also the dimensions should be around 60x37(max)x40 cm i dont really mind if its cubic but keep in mind that i want to add 2 clownfish, an anemone and probably a shrimp with the main corals being euphillias

why not just buy a regular rectangle aquarium and put a hob filter on it? Why an AIO if you just need the tank?

It's up to you whether you want an AIO or not. I personally did an AIO for my first tank because it was "plug and play", and it had everything I needed to start my tank. I think if it is your first ever reef tank, an AIO is fine.

my first ever was a blau cubic around 40 lt in 2019 but now that i wanna start a new one i dont really know whats the best option. i already have a 180 tank that my dad usually cares about it and makes the choises while i mostly help like feeding corals and fish. Also i have a skimmer and a full filter box but my dad suggested the AIO tank because he thought it would be easier to not only set it up but also clean it and lastly be better for the anemone
