Didn't I say to you when we first met at Steve's house, that I can see you will running a 120G soon? I can see you you will upgrading again from 72 to 120G, who knows maybe 180G.

That's what most of people in this board going through. I started from 30G to 55G to 65G to 90g to 120g within an year and a half. Now I am thinking 180G.

I think I'm the only one who doesn't want to go bigger than my current reef. I'm happy with a 120G and wouldn't want to do the work or spend the extra cash maintaing a larger tank. :)

To go bigger on a Fish only tank doesn't add alot more cost but for a reef tank it really adds on from needing a bigger protein skimmer to more lights to more addatives.

I made the jump from a 20gal to a 160gal tank. They have them on sell, when I lived in Brooklyn, for $199 which was the tank and a iron stand. The cost of a 55gal with stand was about $100 less so it was worth the additional $$ to get the larger tank.
