Robert/Cheeks,
Looks very nice! I'm definately getting jealous here. Couple of questions for ya:
Who made the tank? Not asking for a specific price, but do you feel it was reasonable? WIll you be going BB, DSB or SSB with this?
One thing I noticed from running a single 175 watt MH over my 20 for a long while was that placing corals in the tank was an effort, due to the position of the lighting. Since I only had a single source of light above the tank, sometimes the bottom/lower/sides of a coral would bleach, (depending on where it was located in reference to the light) becasue it wasnt receiving enough light. Is there any way you can get another source of light above the tank to run in conjunction w/ the 250? Maybe a couple of PC's or possibly another 250 w MH, that you could set up to run opposite of the other...ie....MH 1 runs for 6 hours from 10am-4pm, MH 2 runs from 4pm-10pm. This would give you two sources of light and not heat your tank up more than one MH, also will cut down on your Electrical bill...
just thinking out loud.
Nick
