Depends on who's paying for it. ;) :D ;D

All-Glass is cheaper, but Oceanic is much better built.

How big?

There was thread about Oceanic bow fronts a while back and there were several people reporting front seams popping in the 150's. I would assume the problem has been corrected.

I have a 50g All-Glass and the only thing I don't like about it is that it's about 125 gallons too small...

i remember a thread about the 72 gallons popping a seam, which is a bummer that is the size i wanted. many people have the smaller ones, 45 gallon or so. not sure if any problems have been corrected or not.

just check to be sure if you getting a larger one that they will replace is within a decent time no questions. i remember one post imparticular in which this gal had hers cycled and one month after filling it popped the seam. so be carefull.

i had a flat back hex acrylic that was great except it was hard to clean through the small holes on top.
