or should i just stick with the original configuration?

Dude, is that a drop off section on the right hand side?

thanks!!

wait until you hear what i have lined up for equipment for this build

been working with proline(albert) on this and we have come to a consensus on two pieces of equipment so far.

first is the lighting, i knew it was LED's right the the start but just could not make up my mind on which unit!


my first option was to go with 16 ecotech radions but albert really step up and give me a deal i could not pass up on getting 4 of the Vertex Illumina 260 6 footers. i think over all i will be happy with this chose i hope
not my picture but still nice!! i was told wait time's to build the 4 units will be 6 weeks, it will be fitted with the red led's as will as the new VU led's that they just released



skimmer will be two of these bad boys
super marine 300

and two if these new self cleaning heads from vertex



now the hunt is on for founding some DC pumps's


thanks dave

Nice choice Dave. Of course anything but LEDs for the size of tank your setting up will kill you in electricity and hmuididty in the summer.
I vouch for the 260 6 footer as i am running this baby at about 60-70%. Do not have the red led module on it though. Albert told me about that self cleaning skimmer cup too, man the silly things we like to mod our tanks with....I want one too!!!

Abyzz pumps all the way Dave. Running for quite some time on peter's 1350g on rc and they've performed flawlessly.

i hope so!!! i will be one really expensive lesson if i have to change them out but your tank is what push me to this unit, i was just not sure until i saw your post!

i have been playing around with a self cleaning head at the store for about three weeks now and i already know two mod's i want to do to it

thanks dave
