Thanks! I'm going to consider a tall tank, along with a few other options, need to sort that out soon.

Even though im at my my new house, bigger tank sounds great, but I think a smaller shallow tank will be fun for me, and the kids as well. I'm going to try and make it as automated as I can, so my family and I can go on vacations and do fun things without having to worry about the tank lol. I have seen some awesome smaller shallow SPS tanks around, so I can't wait. Well good luck can't wait to see this tank continue.
That sounds like a nice tank, and a very very familiar situation! I would love to have more tank but I could see it becoming overwhelming. Sometimes less is more.

Thanks, I'm going to need some input on the fish selection - what do you have in your tank?
