Looking for feedback from those of you that have had 150's or seen them in action. Pros, cons, or a full on SWOT analysis. Thanks.
My story -
I am considering various upgrade options with the one fixture being my existing 48 x 24 footprint.. Basically leaves me with a 60, 80, 120, and 150. I had a 120 so I know what that is all about, and I currently have a 60. I have seen Renoeb's 80 rimless, which is very nice, but I'm not going to do all the work just to add 6"s. In some arenas adding 6"s would be a big deal - just not for my tank. LOL
I initially thought the only upgrade option was to get a new 120 but then I started thinking about going as big as possible which took me to the 150. I like the idea of all that viewing area from the couch and the extra water volume and swimming space for more fish, plus extra room at the top for coral growth. What I don't like when thinking about the 150 is how far I have to reach in to clean the bottom of the glass or place things at the bottom of the tank. I'm tall with long arms and never had an issue handling my 120. The second thing I don't like is how difficult it would be to handle the wiring behind the tank. This was always my biggest annoyance with the 120 when it came to lights and cleaning power heads.
