      It's actually the Atlantis series from Leemar, just like the maple one I have for my reef, except I had them stain it red mahogany.

      Thanks! I plan to use the same lights I have on the 110g currently (T5 4x54W) except I'll use only two bulbs per 4' stretch. As it stands now I only run 2 of the 4 bulbs on the current 4' tank. I'm going to have to check which bulbs they are...I love the color they provide. One is a Korallen -Zucht Fiji Purple, not sure on the other one...

      Yeah, I really hope the impeller was the issue. I'm going to run a ton of carbon, and get some polyfilters in there. Time will tell...
