I posted a few months ago about buying a used tank, decided after months that I'll purchase new. Last time I had a saltwater tank was in the early 2000's. I have some considerations that I haven't been able to find answers for. First, I've been looking at some all in one options from IM and waterbox. The issues I keep pondering is the tank stands being too tall. Love the sleek look of the white stands and it seems IM stands are amazing, BUT my daughter has cp and is not fully moble. She spends a ton of time, while in her room sitting on a cushy mat on the floor and the stands seem too high. Second issue is lighting. If she is spending time on the floor or in a platform height bed the hanging lights will be directly in her eyes, so she'll not be able to enjoy the tank.
Outside of doing a custom stand situation, how can I resolve the stand height situation and the lights being directly in her eyes? I'm not too keen on a top for the tank to cover the lights since I think the entire thing in a big boxy encased tank would overpower the entire room. Any suggestions as I begin planning out this tank build????
