I like the shape of a 58. I've been eyeing the 58RR that they sell at PETCO. I believe that's the smallest RR tank available. Any plans yet on what you will be keeping? Good Luck.

Good choice on the 75. I was originally going with a 58 and once I went shopping It just did not make sense for a few bucks more not to get the 75.

 

Good Luck

well ended up not getting the 75, so i will post pics of the 58

 

heres how i ended up drilling it:

1" overflow

3/4" return

3 - 3/4" holes for CLS with 3/4" barded abs t connector

 

return pump will be a Mag 7 and cls pump will be a mag 5

most of the plumbing will be done using 3/4" id hose

just using the upturned strainer, this tank won't be up for another 3 or 4 months, tank will be softie dominated with a few lps and sps and an anemone.
