I have a 180 also. In my opinion though a tank that size is better for FOWLR tanks. My next tank will be a 120 gallon 48"x24"x24". I think that will make a much better reef tank. I only say this because it takes so much to fill a 180 with corals. Plus you have to get 6 feet worth of lighting which really adds up on the wallet. Dont get me wrong I love my tank and will always have it but my next full size tank will be the above mentioned size.

That is why I went with the 180. Plenty of time and space to add what I want.
