I have not actually worked on a 30" tank but before I made the decision to go with a tank this large I built a replica out of cardboard. It is challenging to access some parts of the tank, but with a bare bottom or shallow sand bed I could do most routine cleaning with a long siphon hose or powerhead. I have also come up with something that looks like scaffolding that I can put over my tank so that I can lay down on it and access any part of the tank I want. Hopefully I won't have to do that to often.

Thank you for your input on the tank depth, I know that it will be challenging but I look forward to taking it on.




Now... any further opinions or advice as to stocking would be appreciated. If anyone can think of some unique or interesting fish that I should consider, I'm all ears. Whatever is reef compatible and won't demolish my SPS population will be considered.

Thanks again.
