Looking to pickup my first tank and I’m torn between these two. The tanks have pretty similar dimensions but the waterbox is taller while the IM is wider. I like that the waterbox is slightly taller.

There is a pretty big price disparity. Over 500 dollars between the two tanks. I don’t mind spending the extra on the IM. Can I get some advice on which tank I should go with? Looking to do a mixed reef.

I personally like them both and think you couldnt go wrong with either but I really love my waterbox I think the aesthetic is alot better looking than innovative marine. But that really is personal preference.

Height doesnt matter a whole lot in terms of fish keeping but allows for better aquascaping

I'm also looking at both. I like the depth of the IM but do wish it was a little taller. Keep in mind the IM comes with two pumps and a screen cover. They are extras on the Waterbox. Waterbed is on sale right now.
