layout ideas

hello all,
If you were considering a medium sized tank (180-250 gal) set up as a room divider, and was building your ''dream system'' ...what equipment would you get?

180-250 gal would be large to me!! LOL.. Others will have to chime in... I am a newb at large reefs...

Check out my 260 reef link in my sig. I have a list of equipment. The only thing I might do differently is reduce the UV to 80 watts.

180 gal system IS my "dream system." Right now though it's just that, a dream. I have been doing alot of thinking and research. You didn't say if you wanted it to be a reef or FOWLR tank. My idea is to go predator tank. For that I'm planning on a 55 gal sump/DSB refugium with a AquaC EV180 skimmer w/ Mag-Drive 7 to control wastes. I think your dream equipment would depend on what you plan to put in it. If I was going to go reef, my dream equipment would be the lighting and ballasts maybe even some controllers. What ever you decide to do it sounds fun!
