Bio, it looks like the overflow is actual in the middle of the tank. Is it the same distance from the back panel, as it is from the front panel?
I would SERIOUSLY consider making this beast viewable from more then just the front/side. Would make a spectular peninsula or room divider. Definitely would have both long side view IMHO.

I've actually considered doing that, but it might be a conflict with the wife due to space but we won't know for sure until we get it in and see how big it really is.

I actually have a black durgeon trigger(melicthys indicus), which IMO looks better than the hawaiian black(melicthys niger). I saw these when I went scuba diving in the bahamas, and I told myself that I just have to have one. He's about 4" now and growing fast!

I bet you're excited to get that beast going.. Are you going to toss in a bunch of established sand and rock to get a quick cycle?

Congrats on an awesome setup. Love the skimmer pics. That thing looks like a beast. I can't wait to see more of this. Just wondering if you have any plans to controll the humidity in the house? It looks like you are planning a FOWLR. I would suggest a very large UV. I love triggers and this is going to make a beautiful home for them. I also love the pic of the BD trigger. I am subscribed and awaitng updates.
