If you could do it all over...

Holy crap, where to start

1. Did more research before buying (Classic rookie mistake Im told)
2. Spent more at first, instead of spending more and more as I get more involved
3. Custom tank w/ external Herbie overflow
4. BIGGER.. went 75G, should have done 150+
5. Did more research (yup I regret that twice)
6. NOT listened to my LFS... Sump, skimmer an light were all wrong for what I realized I wanted after I setup
7. Spent more time figuring out my plumbing setup.

I wish I would have go with the 90 gallons Osaka instead of the 70 gallons, but then if I had gone with the 90 gallons tank I would be wishing for a 120 gallons tank today...

and if I had a 120 gallons I would be wishing for a 200 gallons...you get the idea...
