So now that I have figured out that I want a 125-150 gallon more likely the 150
I have decided on a canopy & stand casing these arent the actually colors but something along these lines, also I have Decided to go Center Overflow/Returns Is that a good plan? or should I route in some returns in the corners or base of the tank?
This is basically it so far, I have also Decided to go DIY LED but havent decided if I'm going cree or modular yet, I know either way I will be hopefully getting Grizz(Greg) to build me one of those B*tchin Heatsinks, the canopy will also have fans built in for circulation

I am open to suggestions to help me along on the plans I have a year or so to get this perfect so any criticism is welcome. I hope to plump the sump into a "fish room" or into the laundry room or something so its not a noise concern. I am also taking suggestions for equiptment, such as ATO, wave makers or circulator pumps, Heaters, skimmers and other equipment as I dont have a clue when I get into that stuff hahaha thanks guys!

pretty straight forward here. sump is in the laundry room or basement, out of sight. I dont know if I'm doing this right but its the basic Idea for now I suppose.
You can see I made a line to a drain/laundry sink for quick water changes.
