Stainless is nice but will likely corrode. There's a good thread on RC about it - I think there's only one "grade" of stainless that actually won't corrode under saltwater. Type 330? Does that sound...

They could be the Envirolite ones as well.. No reflector but self-ballasted like the other T5 rigs. I've seen then at Aquariums West as well. Lights are decent, but reflectors aren't really possible...

That's a pretty slick lookin' tank! I have plans for that type of nano cube for my desk one of these days.

The MJ600 should suffice - but DO remember that powerheads suffer under head, so the...

I believe a standard 5 gallon glass aquarium would fit that. Anything acrylic and you're probably looking at a custom job (or a Rubbermaid-style container). Depending on where the tank is located,...
