For a marine aquarium, it's important to have a width of at least 50 cm, preferably 60 cm. Live rocks will be present in the aquarium, and they take up a lot of space. In a narrow aquarium, there will be little room for fish when the rocks are arranged, and corals will also be pressed against the glass. For marine setups, it's better to glue the rocks together, and an opening for water drainage into the sump (an additional container in the cabinet where the equipment is located) is needed, for example, with dimensions of 80*50*50 cm, which is small.

Nothing better than a custom-made aquarium can be imagined. I ordered a 10 mm glass aquarium without braces, measuring 65 x 50 x 45 cm, with a fitting for drainage. The total cost is about 250 USD (the glass should be of high transparency). Now I am easily selecting equipment for this aquarium. In my opinion, "branded" aquariums are always a compromise that you have to pay extra for.

Drilling a finished aquarium is more difficult.

Don't confuse the sea and the reef! Don't scare the person, he might not have enough space of 50-60 cm in width!

This is where you need to look for answers to questions. P.S.: I sent the literature in a private message. Piracy is strictly prohibited here.

1. With such an aquarium, forget about corals right away to avoid torturing the animals. 2. A protein skimmer is needed, but in your case, it’s problematic since the lid will get in the way... a solution would be to place it on a stand next to the aquarium... If you agree with the first point, there’s not much more to add, except maybe to install a circulation pump and a canister filter... I also want to add that without a sump and with a closed lid on the aquarium, you will face a lot of problems... think about it...
