I know you haven't started to add corals, but even when doing the rock did you wish the tank was deeper, front to back, and not as long side to side?

no i really like that its long bro i got good depth front to back i really like it its exactly wat i alwas wanted plus its just a start for me to learn saltwater and stuff in about to 9 month ima start bulding my 7ft long x 5ft tall x 3ft wide tank it comes out to being 750gal so im not really picky with it
