    125 gal for sale?

    I agree, shipping would cost you waaaayyyyy too much. Just spec one out from some local fish stores. That would be your best bet.

    Adrain, no offence to any of the other here, their input is well appreciated but yours was the one I was waiting for. Thanks. I knew that the 10k bulbs were more intense and had a feeling I was looking at this correctly.

    The long nose yellow is a good choice. My lfs has had one in their display 150 for over a year with nothing bad coming from it. Similar to the copperband in shape and attitude but not the aptasia consumer, unfortunately.
