I have the opportunity to purchase a new tank through a custom builder in TN that will deliver the tank to my area, and wanted to know what you all think:
150 gallon aquarium (60"L x 24"W x 25"H) with a low iron front pane (similar to Starphire), rear-center glass overflow with black acrylic cover, and three 1 1/2" bulkheads in the overflow for $470.
I initially plan to use the two outer 1 1/2" drains for the sump drain with an Iwaki 55 or 70 returning through the center bulkhead. Two Tunze Turbelle Stream 6000s will provide supplemental and randomized circulation.
If there are any suggestions anyone would like to make, I'd love to hear them, as I have until Tuesday to finalize the plans.
Here is a crude sketch (top view) I came up with using MS Paint:
