It would appear that the best tank was found for Balki, it's a custom made 55 gallon, with the measurements of 40" x 20" x 16". It was made with very thick glass and has a metal frame. Built like a "tank" lol. I ordered the T5 dual lights for it today.
Going to re-silicon it and other then the "back" glass being kind of stached up, it's pretty sweet.

Yay I know! I was really concerned about the narrow width of a standard 55, because Balki likes to do a lot of zig zagging through his rock work, so now he has length and width! So happy for him :)
Only 50 dollars too!

I was looking at the Koralia 750, not having any experience with these, I don't know if this will shoot Balki across the tank continuously.
Again, the tank is a 40" x 20" x 16" - 55 gallon.
