You know I have not really thought about this. I think for now I am going to stick with just the regular. I am not a huge fan of a very actinic tank.

I agree. I love the dimensions of this tank. I think mine will be wet around then as well. I was hoping for sooner, but it looks like I have to go out of town for work.

I left that part out. I built it 36" tall. It was a good level for my chair that's right next to it and it is high enough that I don't have to do a lot of bending to work in it.

I am 6' 1" and I hate bending over to work in my tanks.

Thanks. I never thought of that on my last stand and I must say this looks way better. I am very pleased with how it turned out. This is only my 4th attempt at building something ever lol.

Small update tonight. I got my sand in. Caribsea seaflor. I was able to get 80 lbs for $50 from petsmarts. Hoping to get it wet within the next two weeks. The wife is getting tired of the tank pile.

Lol more to come. I hope to post some more today. I still have a lot to do. Main thing I am waiting on is a day off. My goal this weekend is to cut the hole in the top of the stand and start dry fitting the plumbing.

I have not been able to make much progress on the tank unfortunately. Rock is still trying to complete the cycle in the Brute. I hope to get the tank wet in the next week. In the meantime I have been kicking around ideas for stocking.
Proposed List:
3-5 Green Chromis
1 Midas Blenny
Pair of Snowflake Oscellaris Clownfish
Pair of Firefish
1 Diamond Watchman Goby
I am also considering some type of Anthias or Wrasse. I have never kept either and would like one as a "center piece" fish. I am also considering a Green Mandarin if I can find a captive bred one that eats frozen food, I also plan to grow Copepods in my refugium as a supplemental food source. I am very open to ideas and opinions.

Do you have a build thread up? I would love to follow along and see pics of your setup. I saw one of your post checking on the Rip Tide. I think I am going to pick one up in January. If you pick one up let me know your thoughts on it. I would prefer one of those to 4 koralias.

Tank looks great! I think it will cover no problem from what I saw from their videos.
