Man I hate myself for saying this, but try to "blue" up the 125, Change those MH bulbs out for Astrolux 14,000K's or Phoenix's. It's too white, kinda yellow actually... and I'm a fan of nonblue tanks, but that tank needs some.. other than that it looks great, a coralline caked back wall would be cool though.
The color looks basically AWESOME on the nano though. Maybe its the colorscheme that just makes the blueness look "right." The back wall covered in coralline would be cool too.
I'm usually a bluetank hater, but somewhere in between is really nice.

Your tanks look awesome. One question though, do you have any heat issues on the 125 with the halides and the glass tops? It looks like your halides are mounted pretty high so probably not, I was just curious.

Very nice tanks!

My 2cents Lower the light to 6" (The height of the legs) and ditch the glass tops.

I agree, but by the looks of the tank he probably has it all under control and working just fine.

it looks like crap w out tops,and the light is extremely bright,250 m.h,manufacturer even says put it higher up,and easier for maintenance,and i have a chiller so no heat issues,and the back section of tops is replaced,so theres a 4 inch gap,i thank you for suggestions
