Hi Guys. I've been a reefer before but its been more than 10 years since i last set up my tank. I just got my bought my house last year and after seeing this one gorgeous tank near to where i work i got instantly poisoned and it bring my passion for reefing back. Anyway to make it short im looking for setting up a tank now and im having some trouble deciding on some aspects even though ive already read and watched a lot of YT videos. Here are some of the questions. 1. Tank Size. Is there a big difference between 3ft and 4ft tank with the same width and height of 24"x18" in terms of maintenance, price, & water stability. I've only ask one Shop and it quoted me 700sgd for a 36"X24"X18" 10mm thick with a built in cabinet made of solid wood (laminated). is it a good price? 2. If i go for 3ft/4ft should i go for a sump? I want my tank to be as less maintenance as possible so ill probably only go for fish and a couple of easy to maintained corals ( i still have to do some research on this one) thats why im hesitating to get a sump even though most videos i've watched recommended it. 3. For my first buy besides for the tank/cabinet, a sump(if i decided to go), sand & rocks what are the most crucial items i should go first to start the curing. Im really excited to set this up. My target is to set up everything by the end of this month coz i want it up and running with LS before the december holidays. Thanks
