    Have had this sitting in my garage about a week now, finally moved it into the house........this is actually the second tank; the first one had two big holes through the box/tank [​IMG]

    Beautiful AIO system Fawn! As for lighting, I would go with LEDs. Maybe a Kessil A150W? As for a pump, I would with a Tunze nanostream or the likes. It also depends on what you're keeping. Maybe you can get a bigger return pump for it and not use any other internal pump in the tank.

    I am really pleased with the look of it /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default//emoticons/smile.gif Won't need a ton of flow, moving a long tentacled anemone + clown hosts in, then mostly lps, zoas and some softies. Was also thinking the Tunze nano's. I do want LED's, just need something that won't detract from the look of the tank, that's my main concern with them.

    Check them out.  [class="Apple-style-span"]http://www.kessil.com/products/a150..._light.php[/class]  They are small and the look is round, just like your tank. /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/smile.gif  I know a local guy who has them and he's pretty pleased with them.

    I did, very cool, thank you for telling me about them /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/smile.gif  I think the 10k/skyblue one is just what I'm looking for and they're very affordable, excited to try it now......

    The are sold at Marine Depot and Premium Aquatics; at least those places had the best prices.  I waited for a sale to get mine......I got it at Premium Aquatics on an Black Friday sale, I think everything on their site was 11% off, and they already had the best price (although Marine Depot will price match, even sales), so it came out to be $399 shipped, which I think was an awesome price.

    Just from the back /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/plain.gif  Annoying, but I plan on positioning it in a corner and leaving enough room on one side to get things in and out.  Have no idea who thought that would be a good idea to not have the front open, makes me wonder if they test these things in the real world before marketing them..........

    If I modified it, it'd look like a 5 year old had free reign with a jigsaw /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/tongue.gif  I'm sure someone could, but I'm afraid I would just ruin it if I tried anything.
