Okay, looking at my options for a bigger tank, someone on Marine depot pointed me here. I want a bigger tank 
Currently keeping Oscars and plecos
Have kept most cichlids and Knifes
so here I go.
Currently running a 125g store bought tank but it's too small, planning a
11ft x 36" x 36" to view through the wall. probably sell it to subsidize the costs
I search but couldn't find any Metal Frame DiY'er I'm a welder so this is probably the way to go. But still in the planning stage while I reinforce the floor in the tank room. And the wall as it's a load bearing wall for the roof.
1. 12 32watt 5 ft T-8's
2. Custom built Biowheels/trickle I'll throw the plans up if anyone wants, pretty simple and very customisible. I use 400gph pond pump to the spray bar to power the wheel
3 11 ft undergravel 8 powerheads
Thats the stuff I have so far so we'll see
