I think their made by aqueon ? I'll let you know when I get back home. Their just some leds I bought from petsmart awhile back.I have 2 of them and their 4' wide. There already on my 220 so figured give them a try on the 300 and see how they look.
 
I have the satelite current led plus and was thinking of trying somwthing different

Standpipe strainer(s), you may have a good idea of how your plumbing will run and the PVC size, so you could start getting all the unions, gate and ball valves, etc. With a tank that size you may want to consider tube/plumbing with water pump to quickly drain tank if you wanted to do mass wager change. I have CLS so T off that and have quick connect forna hose, bug you could draw water directly from the tank.
