Sorry peoples! We drove up to my sister-in-law's house yesterday afternoon. Went to the driving range with her husband and the kids this morning and then a fall festival afterwards. Headed back for lunch and then the drive back home.

I have a 6x2x2. Love it. Only thing I think I would do different is make it maybe 4-6 inches shorter and wider. I'm up to my pits to reach the bottom and would like to have more bottom area. They are grat there and will make everything work for whatever you want.
My 110 is just too tall, I can just brush the gravel with my fingertips. My 125 is perfect except if it was 24" wide instead of 18" it would be difficult in the back of the tank. I think 72" * 24" * 22" tall would be the perfect tank - maybe 72" * 30" * 20" tall would be better but much wide than 24" and it gets more difficult to light.

Go with the cronies model... 96 long 30 wide 25 deep.
That's such a big tank, I literally do not have a single place I could put that. :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:

Cronies model is peninsula style too, right?

Honestly, I built my current tank with the AIO on one short end, like the peninsula style, and I love the ease of access for cleaning.

If I ever get the chance to build a new house I wanted a peninsula tank as a room divider. Hoping we can secure property to realize that dream soon.

Just make sure you put it in the right way (dont).
