Dual overflows- Gotta love 'em!
Cant wait to see this tank get filled up and grow!
Good choice on bulbs. XM's are nice, i need to get some new bulbs and im going back to XM's.
Concerns on the fish selection, 2 madarins and the wrasse, might end up just destroying your pod population. Just something to possibly consider.
Flow i would probably go with 2 k evolution 1400's and 1 1050. Think that would be plenty.
I would ditch the crush coral subtstrate, go with something finer.
And if you can, try to get a bigger sump, bigger is better.
Jealous. Those dimensions are dreamy.
I have to agree with EMU on the crushed coral substrate.
I'm looking forward to watching this come together.

thanks for the suggestions guys, i just picked up a iwaki MD30RXLT external pump from John last night so thats a big step closer to being done and i will be getting a 36x18 sump from chort
Lookin good demon and dont worry crushed coral is great substrate if you like substrate.
Well, where are the updates?
I will think outside the glassbox.
ok time do some updating....PICS!!!!
