Got the tank, but what else?

I've got my new tank all picked out - now what? My husband has agreed to purchase a 135 gal tank for me instead of the 33 gal tank that I have cycling. I'm getting it from a vendor show tomorrow, along with a stand, but no hood, light, cover, etc.
Where, oh, where, can I find a 48x18 inch top and light, etc for this? Any good suggestions? (you guys always have the best!)
I currently have a new skimmer for my 33 gallon tank, is it possible to just add a second skimmer? Or do I have to purchase a separate one for the new tank?
( I just HATE starting almost over, but in the long run I might get my dragon out of it!)
Thanks all
p.s. Since I haven't actually PURCHASED the tank yet, is there any reason to get the 90 over the 135? (ease of maintenance, availability of equipment, etc?)

with both 90 gallon and 135 gallon, it would be wise to get a sump/fuge, do a search on those and you will get alot of information.

You can always have hubby build the top if he is semi good with woodworking. just take a look a the ones on display in the lfs. They look quite simple to make. I'm planning on building a taller one simuliar to the one that came with the top as I need more clearance for the lighting.
