We are looking to build a 75-gallon tank setup for a snowflake eel. I would like to be able to keep the tank for a long time and upgrade it as we go, but for now, I'm wondering what the cheapest/most efficient filtration setup would be.
I have been doing quite a bit of research but I'm still a little lost with all of the options. We're planning on getting an Aqueon open glass 75-gallon tank, but I'm struggling to find a tight-fitting lid that would still allow for a reef light to either be added or come already installed (we are also interested in adding a few small corals eventually). I would like to just have the tank on an old TV stand and build the filtration into that but we are concerned about having an efficient setup that isn't going to break the bank right off the bat.
Product recommendations and setup layouts are highly appreciated!
