    Welcome to 3Reef
    That size is perfect for a reef tank.
    Does it have built in overflows?

    for a tank that size. should be a great tank for a reef tank.
    you are going to have to put away alot of money for lights for this tank.

    That would be great for a reef. You will definitely need to save for lighting whether MH, T5HO or LED.
