Default my 104.72G Shallow Lagoon

In my line of work we have this thing/idea called a "sandbox". It is essentially a place where we get to play with things/ideas without worrying about harming vital systems. In this case the vital system is my 150g display tank, and so here is the story of my sandbox/tide pool..

The Plan (if you can call it that) for this tank is actually just for messing around. Often times I've found that I wanted to try something out but didn't want to nuke the 150g display tank that I have going. It will double as a frag/prop tank, or maybe morph into a "Shallow Paradise" .. who knows Ironically, I do not plan on putting any sand in this box at all

So here's where it all began..



The Specs:
* Dimensions - 48" long x 36" wide x 14" tall.
* Volume - 105g (~90g actual?)
* Rear Right corner overflow, herbie style with 1.5" drains.
* two returns, one in the overflow box and one outside in opposite corner
* Eurobraced

.. sorry, I have no idea what else I want to use on the tank equipment wise (ie, sump, skimmer, lights, etc). Suggestions welcomed! I'm kind of just winging this one as I go..
