Spencer, glad to know you like it too. I will suggest to get a small shallow tank. You can select any length and depth but make the water height(from water surface to the top of sand bed) equals to less than 12". A shallow tank is not only easy to do tank maintenance, it is also less demanding on lighting requirement. YOu can use less sophisticated lighting gears and don't need to worry about not enough light.

In addition, a shallow and long tank will also allow you to do all sorts of aquascaping like the freshwater planted tank.
