So I want to consider upgrading from my 24g Eco Recife AIO.

I was thinking between 90-120g would be good. Things I am looking for,

- Shallow height, don't want to be deeper than 18" but will settle for 24" standard I suppose

- 3-4ft width, don't want a 6ft

- Durso drain or something that is quiet and easy to manage

- Sump, want something that can hold a skimmer, and also a refugium

- What other equipment would you recommend? I want a Varios 4 maybe? Not sure what else.

- Hoping to do a Mixed reef, softy/lps dominant with a few stick and maybe a nem or two.

- Have no idea what I can stock, but I only have a pair of clowns and a 6-line wrasse

So what are your thoughts? I appreciate your help and experience with this!

Doing research in the forums, I may consider a longer tank for shallow depth. But also, I do not want to sacrifice head room for the comfort of the following stock list:

Firefish
Goby ?
7 Blue or Green Chromis
2 Clownfish
Royal Gramma
6-line Wrasse
Yellow Tang
Red Mandarin Fish

Anything else I should consider or that I can add?

I just upgraded my 60 gallon to a 120. I went with SCA aquariums starfire glass 120 with the built in overflow and pre drilled holes for durso overflow . I couldn’t be happier with it . Reasonable prices for really quality tanks

What are those plastic hose clamps called? Is there a site for them or can I find them at a local hardware store?
They are on BRS
