You need to allow multiple answers for those of us with multiple tanks.

Re: what shape of tank do you have?

Rectangle here.

I am not a big fan of tall tanks, such as the hex. They may work for certain applications, but I do not think they give much room for swimming. Not to mention, a deeper tank will be more difficult to light near the bottom.

Then again, if you wanted to keep corals with very different lighting needs, that might be useful.

Re: what shape of tank do you have?

I have two rectangle tanks at the moment (120, 150). Sometime in the DISTANT future I'm planning on setting up a HUGE "L" shaped aquarium with about 1,000 gallons in it.

Re: what shape of tank do you have?

Isn't that a tank that's got a normal foot print but is taller in order to "Show" more corals with a standard foot print?
