I'm looking forward to the vicarious pleasure of your tank build. If you want to stay smallish go a nano (so you can plan for the next 3ft build). If you go 3ft you'll be planning a 5ft in no time.

Now isn't the time for denial so plan accordingly ;)

It's surprisingly not that different. You think it's SO much extra room, then you buy some coral and put in some rock (not in that order) and suddenly it's full. That's my problem anyway.... :banghead The extra foot might give you an extra 1/2 foot in actual coral space, if you know what I mean.

So some bad news

Hi, Matt




Sorry for the confusion. the shipping on our site is only for the continental USA. we currently don't ship our aquariums individually to Australia.



Thank you so much

Scott



Looks like i will need to look at alternate options. Lucky i do have another backup plan :D
