congrats. i thought i had lofty goals of someday having a huge tank. 400's bigger than i think i'll ever go. now lets see if you can have yours up and as a reef before Mike's 500 :D.

several times ive seen (on RC) people selling tanks because it didnt fit in their house etc... why dont you/they measure before getting a big tank! seems logical, no?

Very nice Tom! I cannot wait until I get a bigger place because I have my Fiance talked into a 670g ;) (120x48x30). In the mean time I need to come up with the 3800 for the tank. Mine will be the stepchild of aquariums, fw. but it will let my 180 be a reef. What are you going to use for lighting, filtration ect. I hope you are going to use base rock with live rock to seed it or else you will have a HUGE lr bill. gl
