Well, I've got one and need to get another. I ordered two but there was a mistake somewhere.

I know 400 is a little much but the price was right so I think I'll raise them a little higher than normal. The tank is 22 deep I think. The tank will be in the basement and all the equipment will be in a separate room behind the tank so noise shouldn't be an issue. As far as the halides are concerned I think some extra fans should do the trick.

400w don't really put off that much heat. It is completely manageable with fans. Once you go to 400s its hard to go back.

I have some progress to report!! I am working on the doors for the stand. The tank has actually made itself from the garage to the basement!!!! I know, I know I could hardly contain myself too. I am looking for someone to drill holes for me but I'll probably have to bite the bullet and buy my own hole saw and do it myself I will post some pics soon.

And on the nine hundredth and forty forth day he said let there be life!! I have lots of work to do yet but the stand is done(other than a couple stain touchups I see!) and I'm quite happy with it.
