Wow! I dont live far and can travel to LA/Ventura any weekend. But yea, legit too late.I have the 24 by 24 by 12 AA, it’s a really nice tank, super clear.
To the OP, I just literally gave a IM40 fusion away, if only you lived closer.
IMO the AA is the way to go.
The starfire is shorter than 24? my cabinet is 23.75
