If I were to ever buy a kit aquatium...something like the Red Sea where u am not piecing it all together...I would go with the Waterbox Platinum series 135.4g tank. These guys seem to make beautiful tanks that everyone loves, and they are cheaper than Red Sea.

That being said though, around here I can buy a new 150g with stand for well under $1000. I'd then buy all of the components to meet my stocking requirements and come in well under $5500.

I'd buy an oversized DC skimmer, combo LED and T5 lighting, an Ecotech Vectra L1, and 2 MP40s. A nice Tunze ATO, and decent doser, 2 media reactors, and a quality sump/refug...whatever is the biggest that would fit in my space (whether under the cabinet or on a separate shelf/stand).
