Corner Tank

I am looking at a 125 corner tank and want to set up a reef with only 2-3 fish. I have read a lot of cons about corner tanks for reef setups. Can you guys give me any insight? I am all new at this.

I don't see why not. Why would it be any more problematic than any other configuration?

I run a corner 102 gallon. You just need more ingenity: putting the tank on teflon moving skids permanently is a good idea---if you ever do have to access the downflow. Generally it's not a problem. Mine is taller than I am so I have to use a stepladder to work in it, but it's a great tank. Light is central and you need only one fixture, so that's a pro.
