thank you! There are several things I know I will regret later that I didn't do...but I wanted simple and quiet.....and working with what I had available!

if you are worried about skimmer and sump make the skimmer external cut a hole in bottom of stand w/overflow tub made out of a wash basin may work for you and give you a bit more height for skimmer. just a thought. i wish my stand was higher as well and may be cutting out the bottom to add a deeper sump slowly getting tired of daily adding fresh water

Sarah right on ,however you dont need the shrimp in there since you put in the hagen cycle..

Very nice Sarah! I know you had been looking for a larger tank for some time. Very happy for you. With your skills I know this tank will be terrific just like all your others.
