My plan so far is to drill a couple returns in the back glass, & paint it.

Equipment planed &/or ordered:

Lighting 2-Radion LED lights. Look good & a better deal than the AI SOL'sSkimmer, my Vertex In-100 for now, will be awhile before there will be much stock in it anyway.

Dual 300W heaters (for safety)

80lbs of Caribseas base rock

around 40lbs of live rock from my existing system

1 MP-40 to start with, probably add another one later if needed.

I need to figure out how big of sump will fit inthe stand & build that. Other than that things from my existing sytem will move over.

Future plans is a dosing pump of some sort, probably a proflix

A controller, most likely an Apex for budget reasons. With the radions, a profilx controller is probably over kill.

Right now I don't have much stocking plans. I do want a yellow tang, or a powder blue. Other than that it will be taking time & see how the SPS grows.

Watch for pictures to come.

Excellent choice and thinking on the lights as 2 Radions are perfect for a 120g
