But the new stand needs to be white. Either white acrylic or a white tile. I think I'd prefer a marble. My last tiles I *think* were $20 ea. I'm buying fewer this time so maybe if they're more than that it's ok. Still dreaming right now.

Thanks man =)

Well, im going to have to drive by anyways to find out the name of it.

If anyone's keeping track there was just a tiny 7 gallon size creep since my last brain dump. Not bad really.

Tank details as of today:

• 36x36x18

• 2 sides viewable in starphire (will be in corner of my new basement against both walls)

• 2 other sides painted black

• canopy to ceiling

• stand and canopy part of walls, drywalled. Entire L-shaped canopy will be on heavy duty hinges to swing out in one piece

• External overflow will be on other side of wall under stairs. Back of tank will be totally open to the space under the stairs.

• Pair of Vortech MP40w rather than closed loop

• wall under stairs will be insulated to keep sump and vortech dry side noise out of the tv room

• Sump and equipment in a back room on other side of the stairs. Using my little Eheim 1250 as a return might not work?

• lighting to be all mh for replacement economy. dual 250w phoenix in lumenmax elites arranged L to R

• skimmer still unsure. vertex in-180, octo extreme 160, or bubble magus 160

Obviously nothing here is real and if anyone has anything to suggest, debate etc I'm all ears.
