I have the stand finally.  Now I just need some 3/4" plywood (for under the tank and sump) and the plumbing then it's a tank!  I'm starting to lean towards and xm 10k bulb because of the PAR.  If I want more colour I can add actinic T5's down the road.  I'm going for growth initially.
oh yah and I gotta paint the back and bottom.  so many things to do before it's done.
