Im definitely feeling the color scheme you guys have going... Keep up the pics as you continue to put it all together.... I really wanna see how it looks to have a white stand with the tank full..

I picked up the tank yesterday. Tonight I did some plumbing, mounted the reflectors and wired one side of the canopy. The plan was to run 2-400w MH but I am going to run 2-250w MH instead (because I was talked into it, lol) Its now 9:52pm and I am waiting for a friend to get off work so he can help me carry the tank in the house and set it on the stand.

looks great! when you get the LR - be sure to have buckets to take water out. The LR will displace some of that volume you have in there. Think of it as your first water change. ;D

You'll be happy you ditched the 400watt halides. I made that mistake once. My tank was never the same since. Crash after crash after crash. More cash, more cash, and more cash. Two chillers later, I went with the 250's. I also have 250's on my 30" high tank and can grow any SPS's on the bottom.
Keep up the nice work.
