135 reef in progress...

Ok, doesn't look like much yet, but I got rid of my 125 and upped to a 135 for my reef tank.
Waiting on some metal halides to arrive (3 X 250), so it's not all that bright right now, my old hood doesn't fit on this tank due to positioning of the filtration and a difference in glass thickness and bracing style otherwise I would have just moved that over.
here it is so far though.

Looking good thus far.

Why did you change from 125 to 135? It's not a huge difference, so I was just wondering. Tank looks really nice though, the blue back ground gives it a good feel.

mostly changed because of the positioning of the plastic bracing underneath the metal halides.... didn't want them melting.
got the 135 and all the fixins for $100, traded my 125 towards a 180 that I'm going to be using for freshwater monsters.... it worked out that way.
