Hey Nemo,
That looks great. That is the EXACT tank that I have, bought it at petsmart, lol. If you have any questions about mine feel free to ask, but looks like you have it covered. I am using a really cool UV Sterilizer that is all in one, meaning the pump and all is built in in a really small package, let me know if you are interested in a link or product name.
EDIT, Umm come to think of it, is that a UV sterilizer setup I see in there?

i beleve the 24 watt one is 50 dollars. the siwtch was great.really quick. since my old tank is on one side of my room and my new one is on the other, all i had to do was add the rock, take out and put in water and then add fish and coral. thanks for all of your replys!

Nemo,
Here is a pic of the UV sterilizer in the back. I am definitely getting a background, too many wires for sure.
The second pic is of my dragon, I think you were asking about him one time.

You need to post this pic in the "newbie" picture contest. Great shot!
