if you get a fairly shallow tank (18" or something like that, maybe a 48 gal or 54 gal) you could just throw another 175w MH over it and that would be that. the bargain finder has a few 175w setups in it right now, i bet you could haggle for a good price. r_wellwood has that berlin classic for sale, that would probably be a good skimmer. get yourself some pieces of glass and turn your 20 gal into a sump/fuge. would be a rather small fuge (maybe 5 gallons), but it would get the job done i think. my sump/fuge tank is a 50 gal and in the end the fuge only takes up 17 gal.
