Going to look at some grow out tanks from a local angel fish breeder. He doesn't breed anymore and wants to sell them.
He says they are only about 8 inches high but about 3 feet long and wide. Never seen anything like these before. I think they might be like coral frag tanks.
If the price is right i might just pick up a couple of these

According to Aquadvisor, these are about 45 gal. tanks

Exactly, but the huge surface area means you can pack a whole ton of little bitty babies in them.
Always move forward. Never look back.
