That will be nice but personally i think it is a waste. Sure the planted tanks look nice but something that big deserves to have schools of tangs and chromis's. The pairing of clownfish and anemone, shrimp and shrimp goby. Many now can you just think of the lighting that would need. If it were me on a freshwater tank i would put discus in there with plants now that would be nice. 3 pairs of discus some blue rams, huge schools of tetras. WOW

Thats not a waste. Personally being a plant person myself, I think a properly planned/equiped planted tank can be just as beautiful as a properly planned/equiped reef tank.

Can't wait to see pictures of that thing up and running!

sorry richer i didnt mean any offense. Personally i am both a plant and a fish person. I like the look of a planted tank but i also like to see little tetras swimming in and out of the laves with a pair of discus or angelfish for looks
