I've had the same 20g reef tank since 1990. I had thought about building one (30" cube), but probably not gonna get one unless this one starts to fail or does and there is something left to save.

As soon as my son graduates high school we are moving so my tank wont' be purchsed until the relocation. It will be 1125 gallons, 10'x4'x3.5'. Can't wait for the research to begin next year, Bob is a junior this year.
I recently bought me a 150 for the house we are moving into next month. I also just picked up a 180 that is going to be the sump under the house. I am chomping at the bit to set the thing up!
Just bought a 7 gal bofront. Went out to buy a $10 five gal to replace the leaking 4 gal I made, and just liked it enought to bring it home. Thursday I drove up to paragon ( www.paragonsales.com) and bought 11 lbs LR, and some green hairy mushrooms and a nice candy cane coral (corals for the other tank). HD in brooklyn just started to carry the 65w LOA lights, so I had to get one of those too. throw in a MJ 400 on a spray bar and wallah, New tank.

I've had a 4'x2'x16" InterAmerican glass tank sitting in the basement for almost 6 months now and it's finally coming together this September. Also, I just purchased a used 4'x2'x1' acrylic tank and am hoping to somehow plumb that one in as well to use as frag growout, a lagoonal seagrass bed, or something like that on the same system. I'm looking forward to getting rid of this 38 gal AGA (the dimensions suck on it).
That's exactly what I did Nanos are fun. although the adventure of stocking them is shortlived (plop half a dozen corals in there, add a fish, and you're done!).
