Thought I'd share the build along the way, with those who may want to tag along.
Starting with an AGA 180G RR with dual Mega-flow overflows (6'X 2'X 2') and the basic black factory stand. I plan on getting most of the plumbing, equipment, electrical, make-ready and rock-scape temporarily "laid out" and arranged--in the garage, before disassembling and moving it into it's permanent location in the house.
Lighting is a Coralife PRO 72" w/(3) 250W HQI MH, (4) 96w Actinics & (4) Lunar Leds.
Sump is a custom acrylic that is currently under construction.
Skimmer......well heck, I WANT IN THE CLUB!! Bubble Magnus 200P (as soon as they get one in stock).
Pump, I'm leaning towards a Panworld 150PX (but haven't pulled the trigger yet)
Rock-scape will be something special (once I get them in hand and in the tank, I'll post some pictures) :-o
So far: Durso's are built, back of tank has a few coats of black, light has been fitted (just for some pics), and plumbing will get started when sump is finished and pump gets here. A few pics to get it going:
