EDIT: the wife picked up 2 more tanks while I was writing this post. 8 tanks now.

Well I’m in pretty deep at this point. 70 days ago I was a tankless household. Looking for another aio 20ish nano and aio 20-40 lagune style frag and I’ll be done until after Christmas
Currently we have a 6ft 180, a 45 cube, a nano, 2 qt tanks and just set up my frag tank. I’ll be looking for some sticks to fill them in the very near future. Let me know if you need to get rid of some SPS.

hows the build quality of the neptunian cubes
I bought the Neptune 180 first. It’s up there in price but Jamal did me really really well and took very good care of me. The stand is an engineering masterpiece. Take a look at what little framework supports the entire weight. The stand is wrapped in very thick (maybe 5/8ths) solid pvc type paneled sheets. The doors are soft auto close. Push magnetic latching/releasing doors. The sump shows great attention to detail. Hider box for cable management. Adjustable widths on sump chambers. 3sock filters. Quiet overflow with sound muting covers. Emergency overflow secondary. Forced channeling for complete 360 circulation prior to return pump. Return and overflow are side by side but must travel the entire sump to get from one to the other. Custom cut flow vents from chamber to chamber. Great color scheme to bring under cabinet together. The only complaint (not really complaint) is under cabinet is very dark even in the middle of day. I need to figure out adhesive strip lighting connected to a door trigger.
Tank is very thick glass. Most magnetic devices have trouble penetrating glass due to thickness. Overflow box is quiet, but I would have preferred a little less debt to overflow to prevent a narrow center surface area. Island style would have solved this issue. Absolutely no complaints on the entire system. I liked it so much, 3 days later I ordered the cube, but customs delayed my delivery by holding everything at port of entry for almost a month. Jamals boys came 2 hours away and set up each unit on different days. I could not be more pleased with the entire experience, and the entire crew at THAT AQUARIUM PLACE are some of the best in the business. I’m looking into getting a third unit from him very soon. You pay for quality, but I was definitely not overcharged for the entire package. I highly recommend the Neptune system.
