Hi, Iwas going to do a 90 gallon but someone suggested a 125 short because of the depth, so i was wondering if any one had any pics. Thanks

Are you referring to a 120gal (48"X24"X24")? If so, that is a really nice size tank because of the 24" depth like you said. LOT'S of people have this size tank on here. Just do a search for 120 and you'll find some great threads with set ups of this size. You can also find 110g and 100g tanks of the same size that are just a little shorter (22" and 20" respectively). I'm currently designing a 120gal system that I should hopefully be getting in late January/February. I'm very excited and I would definitely go with the 48"WX24"D over a standard 90gal (48"X18") if I were you!
Also, pictures of this size tank really don't do it justice. If I were you I would find a LFS or friend with this size tank and go see it in person. When I first saw this size at the store from which I'm buying from, I was sold instantly. The depth is really great for aquascaping. Good luck!

120 is a really nice form factor. 180 is even better ;)

yeah a 180 is the same width and height as the 120, but its 6' long instead of 4'. If I had the wall space for it I would definitely be getting that, but oh well, I'll have to wait until I have a bigger house.
