Good choice for the shop your going with. I purchased my custom from red coral a year ago and am very happy with the quality of the tank. Sounds like your getting almost exactly what I purchased but taller (i went 48x18x16) and with all the same features. Two things i would suggest is black silicone being used and get an external overflow rather than an internal which i wish i did. Its worth the trip and i am sure you will be happy with the tank. here are a few pictures of what your tank will look like (but taller):

thanks, but trust me when i say that the external overflow is worth it. unless you put it in the corner aquascaping is a huge pain in the butt and you need something to add flow for those corners.

I do plan on getting another tank built and will be going back to kevin for it
