Hey... I didn't have a choice..

The other equipment is what I had on my 55. bakpak 2 skimmer, which upgrade as soon as I can. I did mod the skimmer with a maxi-jet 1200 so that improves it some. I still haven't decided on a good replacement yet.

I'm still running the 2 seios m620s, but will upgrade those to either 1 or 2 koralias. I get a good return water flow so I was able to get ride of 2 maxi-jet I used to run. The MH are my old 10k XM 250w bulbs. I only ran them for about 6 months before I had to move so they should still be good for a bit. I did buy new VHO lights though for actinics. I got my ATO working last night and tweaked it to keep the proper amount of water in the tank.

The overall dimensions are: 36 x 18 x 24. I could only wish for a 18' tank! The height is a little annoying, but I like the additional room. I didn't get the rocks in last night, but I hope to this week. Then I need to buy some more rocks. I'm thinking an additional 30 or so lbs of rock so I will have a total of 120 to 130 lbs of rock. I started making RO/DI water last night so I'm just about ready to go.

Thoughts?
