    Are you going to drill the 20L fuge to overflow into your sump?

    Yep, one of the last things I need to do. Just waiting on the bulkhead kits to get here. I know it wasn't the smartest to paint it before then, but I wanted to do it anyways, as I had never painted a tank before. Figured if I screwed up it was better to happen with the 20 than the 200 ;)
    Pumps and denitrator got here tonight. Should have water soon!

    I do not use live rock in any of my tanks. Rock is all base.
    Well, unless you count the rock that has become live in my 40 ;)

    Right on, thats what I plan on doing with my next upgrade. Absolutely no LR......maybe a couple choice pieces from reputable online dealers for seeding, but for the most part Im going with Marco rocks. Aiptasia and calurpa put a bad taste in my mouth.

    Wow, thats looks great. I just read this whole thread and 39 pages later, a pic worth while. I can't wait to upgrade my tank. I am looking for a 180G right now. I check craigs list twice a day.lol I can't wait to see this thing with some water in it. Great work so far.

    Stand looks great pack, it's really gonna look cool with the lights on in both tanks. I'm kinda planning on doing the same thing with my stand. The 240 long will let me put my 75 gal sump on one side and I currently have a 55 running that I might put on the other side and display it though the stand sorta' like yours. Thinking either a species tank or I may even do a fw tank,had fw for years and alot easier to keep up (and cheaper!). If mine turns out half as good as yours I'll be happy.
