![]() Love those dimensions Brett. 36" deep is awesome and I agree with you on the 27" height. Anymore than that is too difficult. Good call on the sump being up off the ground too. My sump is on a 26" stand built into a closet and I love it. The top of the sump is chest height and easy to work on. Any thoughts on lighting, skimmer, etc. Don't want to rush you but there is the "need to know factor"

![]() Lance I think the only difference here worth mentioning is I won't need to come out of the closet everytime I'm done working in the sump. Just sayin' =)
I have been buying hqi ballasts when I see them. I now have: 1 x dual pfo hqi 1 x dual bluewave hqi 1 x single bluewave hqi I picked up an old maristar 2x250w with bad t5 ballast. I intend to buy just a reg electronic ballast to run this over a frag tank (no T5) when and if I ever go down that road. so the tank will have at least 4x250w. I may go with 5 and simply run the center one as my sunrise, sunset light. Perhaps avoid having to install (and replace) T5s. Not sure yet. As for a skimmer I haven't really seriously looked into that yet. I'm not looking forward to it either! |

![]() Yeah, I hear 'ya. A skimmer for a tank that size is going to take a good size bite out of the old wallet.
