I cant wait to see this up and running. What corals are you planning? That depth will make it look so crazy with anything in there.

Thanks jphong, I have 2 tanks now full of corals so I will transfer those here when the tank is ready. I will have a variety of zoas, LPS and being so shallow I think SPS will go crazy with the light and flow in this tank.

Your dimensions are very cool...tons of floor space. I'm looking forward to seeing how you scape this baby.

Thanks Chris,

I was at the acrylic store today and picked up some acrylic dowel for posting the LR and had the one sump cut so I can build it. I have the table saw and acrylic cutting blade for it but sometimes it is easier to just get the guy to cut it right there.

Pictures to come.
