nice how many gallons? what kind of lights you throw one that Bad Boy? what do you plan to make it?

This tank is a 150g i was going to go with a 200 but i was tired of fighting the depth of the tank,my 190 is 31" deep and very hard to work in,so i decided to go to the 24"depth to make it a little easier.The tank will be full blown reef when i get done,that's the only way to have a tank to me!

The lighting on it right now is 6-120w VHO's,but i have 2-400w MH on the way with a new 100gpd RO/DI unit.

Looks great. Can you please take pictures of underneath the tank. I want to see exactly how you have your plumbing flowing, and if you could take close-ups of it going into the overflow pre-drilled part, I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks so much!
